FAQ- USB VS FireWire
Whats the skinny?
The ever-present Universal Serial Bus (USB) is now a standard feature
on virtually every new PC. The "jack-of-all-trades" nature of USB has made
it ideal for connecting additional peripherals without opening the
computer. The drawback of the original USB standard (v1.1) was its
relatively slow speed however most new PC’s have adopted version 2.0
offering theoretical speeds up to 480Mbs. Both USB and Firewire feature
"hot-swapping", which means you won't need to shut down and reboot your PC
to attach or remove a peripheral.
FireWire, (technically known as IEEE 1394) is a serial input/output
technology invented by Apple Computer with data transfer rates up to 400
megabits per second. A FireWire upgrade has been released and IEEE 1394b
will offer transfer rates of up to 800 Mbps, reportedly fast enough to
copy an entire CD in seconds. Firewire 800 is starting to show up in the
market now with mass-market adoption expected in 2004.
While the two serial buses seem similar, they are intended to fulfill
different bandwidth and cost needs. 1394 can move more data in a given
amount of time, but is considerably more expensive than USB due to its
more complex protocol and signaling rate. Applications that are best
suited for 1394 are disk drives, high quality video streams and other high
bandwidth applications. USB is appropriate for middle and low bandwidth
applications such as audio, scanners, printers, keyboards, and mice.
USB and 1394 are complementary technologies. 1394 is for devices where
high performance is a priority and price is not, while USB is for devices
where price is a priority and high performance is not.

and empirical knowledge to design and create ruggedized computer products
to fill that void.
