Belkin is giving computer users the chance to embrace USB 3.0 with the launch of a range of USB 3.0 products; enabling you to start using the plethora of hard drives and gadgets that will no doubt hit the market soon.

The new line of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 products, which includes a PCIe Add-In Card, ExpressCard, and Premium A-B and Micro-B Cables, allows you to move content-rich media back and forth between different devices.

For those excited about file sharing speeds Belkin is promising transfer speeds up to three times faster than USB 2.0.

Available from April in the US, those not wanting to dismantle their PC can opt for the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 PCIe Add-In Card at $79.99, while those happy to take their computer apart can opt for the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 PCIe Add-In Card, also $79.99.

Although the bolt-on will work with USB 2.0 devices, currently there is only a handful of USB 3 hard drives available on the market.
