What is ZIV? ( - What is USB? )  a) USB(Universal Serial Bus) -  Faster and easier to use than parallel, serial, or PS/2 connection, and it lets you plug in and unplug devices without rebooting or reconfiguring your PC.  -  Has been standards on most PCs and Mac for well over 2 years.  -  PC connector of the future.  b) USB 2.0 -  Developed by the USB Promoter Group, consisting of Compaq, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Lucent, Microsoft, NEC, and Philips Semiconductors.  -  Extend the speed of the peripherals to PC connection from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 up to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 - or 40 times over existing capabilities.  -  Will support the most demanding PC user applications, such as digital image creation and web publishing, where multiple high-speed peripherals will be running simultaneously.  -  The first USB 2.0-enabled systems and peripherals are expected in the marketplace sooner or later as part of the initial ramp, and broad deployment is anticipated in 2001.  -  Usbnet, Inc has a plan to develop new version of ZIV to work in USB 2.0
specification, and we ensure the fastest portable hard disk drive shall be available in the market by Usbnet Inc.  c) USB-Fire Wire(IEEE 1394) Debate -  Fire Wire can reach theoretical speeds of 400 Mbps, even though there are no peripherals capable of testing that limit. And the specification will go up to 800 Mbps and 1,600 Mbps in the future.  -  It comes with a licensing fee, and users must bear additional cost for that.  -  Despite the fact that Fire Wire is fast and is here now, Intel is pushing USB 2.0 as the real connection standard for both low and high speed devices on consumer PCs.  -  Generally, USB 2.0 and IEEE 1394 primarily differ in terms of application focus. The USB 2.0 Promoter group expects USB 2.0 to be the preferred connection for most PC peripherals, whereas IEEE 1394's primary target is audio / visual consumer electronic devices such as digital camcorders, digital VCRs, DVD, and digital televisions.  -  Both USB 2.0 and 1394 are expected to co-exist on many consumer systems in the future. However, USB shall stay just besides consumer PC users.  2) Ziv hard disk drive : Pocket size portable hard disk drive a)  Ziv is the new brand name of portable hard disk drive we developed for computer users who need mass external storage unit with frequent transfer from PC to PC and back up to your private data.  b)  It is also suitable to use as a way to expand existing hard disk capacity, and good solution as a back-up storage media.  c)  For professionals who have to present graphics, animation samples, or business proposals in the type of document or drawing, and others we can tell you that our product is the best supporter and a good partner for your   all of the work.
