Yeah, I can see more external graphic cards, hdtv tuners and wireless internet dongles on the market utilising this tech. Would be good, however, if there were faster disk drives to take advantage of the transfer rates but by then eSATA III (6Gb/s) or even IV will have been released.
Yeah, I was quite surprised when I saw the new plug type as I'm pretty sure I'd heard they were keeping the same type.

Standard usb connectors have never been to crash hot. the new design fixes a few flaws, namely the snapping of the plastic rectangular guide as well as poor connections due to infirm joints... extra connectors were required for error correction and interleave so they couldnt use the old format. I expect these would be pretty durable as theres no way you're going to jam it in the wrong way (as ive seen some USB sticks done)

-D

surly they didnt need to change the plug type and could of made it backward compatible with USB 2 and 1.1

you guys clearly haven't read the actual article - end A will still be the same physical size of current USB. The pic on the link is for end B.

End A from the full article below:

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
