What is the difference between USB 2.0 and 3.0

The maximum transfer rate for USB 2.0 is 480 Mbps, also referred to as High Speed. USB 3.0 has a transfer rate over 10x faster with a top speed of 5.0 Gbps. brbrTo take advantage of the additional speed, you will need a host controller, cables and devices that are all USB 3.0 compliant. The actual transfer rate will depend on the equipment being used.

Is USB 3.0 backward compatible with prior version of USB?

Yes, it is. However, maximum transfer rates will be limited to the maximum performance of the slowest device or cable in your connection.
