HD-DVD has a maximum data transfer rate of only 36.5Mbps, while USB 2.0 has a theoretical maximun transfer rate of 480mbps.   So, the simple answer is, YES, it has plenty of speed.   Even though you never get that total 480mbps transfer, it is plenty fast for transfering HD content.

Also theres speculation that it will connect to the modified SATA connector the HD uses.
