     Hello all:

 

     I want to buy USB Flesh Drive for transfer files between my HP machines.  I checked the

Internet and found that there are two quite different types: 2.0 USB and 3.0 USB. The price

of 2.0 is much cheaper than 3.0.

 

     What are the main differences between them?  Which one should I buy?

 

                                                                           -- Zhao

USB 3.0 is faster than USB 2.0 so if you are moving large files you probably will want a 3.0.
