USB 1.1 and USB 2.0???

If you have a computer more than a few years old, and you plug in a memory stick or any USB device, you get prompted to upgrade to USB 2.0. What is the difference? The memory stick, printer, camera still work.







Well, it all boils down to speed. USB 2.0 is faster. How much faster? Look at the speed rating below;
  • USB 1.1 has data transfer speed of 1 to 12 Mbps
  • USB 2.0 leave USB 1 in the dust with 480 Mbps
