It depends on the serial bit rate versus the parallel strobe cycle time but, in general, a parallel interface is faster than a serial interface. However, modern USB, Firewire, and SATA interfaces are very fast, and might be considered faster.

Serial vs parallel processing?

It is less costly to design ever faster serial lines than to create and build the necessary circuitry to keep faster parallel channels properly aligned. This is why Parallel ATA and Parallel SCSI have migrated to Serial ATA (SATA) and Serial SCSI (SAS).

Which communication is faster in parallle and serial?

Parallel data transmission is faster compared to serial data transmission. The speed of a parallel link is equal to the number of bits sent multiplied by the bit rate of each individual path.
