What's different between I1394 and USB 2.0 ?

Both of USB 2.0 and I1394 are increased system transfer speed for external devices. Now, let us to explain these Spec. for USB 2.0 and I1394 as below:

  1. USB 2.0:
    A core team from Compaq, Hewlett Packard, Intel, Lucent, Microsoft, NEC and Philips is leading the development of the USB Spec. For Example: An external USB 2.0 hub has an input rate of 480Mb/s and output rates of 480Mb/s for attached high speed USB 2.0 peripherals. This backwards-compatible extension of the USB 1.1 Spec. Uses the same cables, connectors and software interfaces so the user will see no change in the usage model. In Biostar, most of motherboards able to support this function, such as P4TPT, P4TDQ P4TGV!K.
  2. I1394:
    IEEE STD 1394-1995, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus, defines facilities in the cable environment for the distribution of power to connected devices. For Example: An external I1394 hub able to provide 400Mb/s for attached high-speed I1394 peripherals. In Biostar product, you can find 10 Pins Red Header on motherboard.
