iPad Pro innards pave the way for USB 3.0 transfer speeds<article>

Apple’s iPad Pro doesn’t currently bring any major improvements in transfer speeds over previous iPads, but that could change with the arrival of new adapters.</p><p>
A
teardown of the iPad Pro by iFixit revealed that
Apple’s jumbo tablet includes a 4-port USB 3.0 Host Controller. In theory, this should allow for USB 3.0 transfer speeds through the iPad Pro’s Lightning port.</p><p>
But as
MacRumors reports, using a standard Lightning cable only transfers data in the 25 MBps to 35 MBps range. USB 3.0 allows for speeds beyond 60 MBps,
up to a theoretical maximum of 640 MBps.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3004647/ipad/ipad-pro-innards-pave-the-way-for-usb-30-transfer-speeds.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
