   No, because speed isn't measured in a power of two, so you only have 3 000 000 bits per second ;)
   Hopefully full duplex though, so 6 000 000 in total!

     I never understood that debate. Harddrive manufacturers don't get away with anything. They label in powers of ten - k M G T etc. It's our operating systems that label stuff (sometimes using incorrect prefixes) in powers of 2 - Ki Mi Gi Ti etc. Everyone are using the correct SI units except some software developers who think they can simplify Ki (2^10, 1024) to k (10^3,…
