USB 3.0 is more than 10 times faster than 2.0. it will be worth a premium.

sata 3 again need sata 3 HDDs to utilize the potential.
but again, there is a serious limitation. It's the speed with which HDD's arm can transfer data (signal).
sata3 will be very useful for something like WD black edition and raptors that are limited by sata2's bandwidth.

I don't think so, only SSDs can cross the SATA2 Speed limit, since they are mostly(i mean all) out of reach its really no use getting SATA 3 now, it will be quite a few years for SSDs to hit the mainstream market, wasting money isn't needed, apart from SSDs most peripheral devices(all that use flash- like ipod, walkmans, cameras, pen drives) are yet to cross USB 2.0 limit so USB 3.0 is likewise useless, the technology needs to catch up first.

Or better go raid 0 with them, get similar speed at less than 50% price per GB.
I guess not. BTW, it was priced around $30 and it uses pci-e x4 slot & this card also has 2 sata 6gb ports .For pics and more details

That's really cheap, provided USB 3.0 drives or SATA 3.0 drives will cost a fortune(SSDs).I guess not. BTW, it was priced around $30 and it uses pci-e x4 slot & this card also has 2 sata 6gb ports .For pics and more details

ok. is corsair cx400 enough or shall i get the vx450 ?
i'm inclined to the vx450 but the street price here is 6k. Any shop in B'lore which gives it for 4k ?
offtopic : dang. pop got me a mac book. I cant believe he payed 50k for that stupid thing. The display is so inferior compared to my dell screen. And 9400GT , holy crap. Looks like i cant buy 4870. I'll have to settle with GTS 250 ( street price is 8k for 512mb version ! ) or 4850.

Try GolchaIT or Ankit Infotech on SP road. I would say, go non-Corsair. CM Real Power Pro 460W is just as good @ 3.5k. Make sure you buy Real Power Pro as many dealers may try to sell you Extreme power, which you already have. Just check with the warranty of this one and let us know. AFAIK, it is 5 years, but if it isn't, get the VX450W @ 4k, which has 5 year warranty.
