I have a question, do USB 2.0 ports use different cables?

And I'm looking for a scanner. The one I have now is an ancient one, about 10 years old, and uses an ISA SCSI card. But my new motherboard doesn't have an ISA slot. So I need a new scanner.

Would a scanner take much use of USB2.0? or should I stick to 1.0 or something. Either way, is there one that you would recommend?
