RN104: USB3 vs ESATA?

Which interface on RN104 is fastest to connect a (fast) external SSD-disk to?
Or does anybody now which kind of ESATA it has (rev 1, 2 or 3)?
Hopefully it's possible to use bcace (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcache) in the future...

In either case: USB3 or eSATA, the limiting factor is the hard drive. (Assuming a single drive external device).

Have there been tests to look at CPU/chipset usage with USB and eSATA? The limiting factor will be the CPU of the system.

Sorry. I don't have any CPU resource data for USB vs. eSATA.
