usb 2.0 IS 480 Megabits a sec which is 60 MB a second


and dvd burning doesnt even come close to maxing either one of those out, fastest i have seen is like 10 megabytes a sec......


all about personal preference...unless you have usb 1.0 or 1.1, then use firewire
its 400megaBITS per sec which works out in real life transfers about 40-50mb per sec. usb2 is slightly faster
usb1 isnt worth bothering with really, not for external storage.
