No offence meant but in classic Amiga-land what does USB2 get you?
Nothing. You can do everything that USB can do with alternatives. Most alternatives actually work better because the way that USB is shoe-horned into the OS.

I don't care much about usb3 even on PC. esata is a lot better when it comes to external hdds.

Nah, eSATA is too slow for RAID and cannot provide power so you need yet another power supply or a USB vampire cable. Had the eSATA connector had power things may have been  different.
