The Universal Serial Bus (USB) send the signal serially. This would be slower than handling the data in parallel. Modern advances in processing speed has made the USB as fast as older parallel ports.

The main advantage of USB is ease of use and 'plugability'. You can attach peripheral devices without switching the computer off first. They are 'Hot Swapable'.

There are only four contact pins on a USB socket. Two power and two data lines. This makes it simple, cheap and safe.

How can an individual convert a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA?

Rollover - A distribution from a traditional IRA can be contributed to a Roth IRA within 60 days after distribution. Trustee-to-trustee transfer - The financial institution holding the traditional IRA assets will provide directions on how to transfer those assets to a Roth IRA with another financial institution. Same trustee transfer - As with the trustee-to-trustee transfer, the financial institution holding the traditional IRA assets will provide directions on how to transfer those assets to a Roth IRA. In this case, things should be simpler because the transfer occurs within the same financial institution. Note...A conversion results in taxation of any untaxed amounts in the traditional IRA. I did this, and had to pay the taxes on the money, before it went into a roth. The IRS spread the tax payments over a 4 year period, and was sure to send me a reminder every year at tax time, to make sure I didn't forget!!
