Sure you will not get this 16.6Mb/s, but you will get like ~10Mb/s, maybe more.

For a non-DMA device on Zorro-III? No way! Its just marketing crap.

Can I ask for driver for Spider for keyboards, mouses, HDD, pen drives etc?

Poseidon would have everything but Elbox has no licence for their Spider so you are stuck with the demo version. Elbox can't deliver an own stack so Spider is useless if you have no key for Poseidon.

For USB 2 in a Zorro 3 (or 2) Amiga just get a Deneb.

If you have Zorro at all...

Its like USB2.0 which can make up to 480 Mbit/s but in real life you will get only about 320 Mbit/s or less even on modern PCs which makes it slower than FireWire 400.

IDE on amiga is a mess, it eats all your cpu. Only the Deneb has DMA which makes it useable with IDE devices without freezing the whole system during file operation. If Deneb is too expensive for someone I would rather go for a Z-III SCSI controller.

No, sorry. Both are serial busses, and both "suffer" from the same bandwidth eaters: 8b/10b coding, bit stuffing, sync frames, protocol overheads.  So if you compare both serial busses you need to give both a reduction of 33%, to be fair

Sure, FW400 doesn't reach 400 MBit/s but its faster than USB2.0 in real life. Thats what I wanted to say.
