SPI or some other autonomous high-speed sampling of pins is probably what you'd need to engage in a serial connection. If not one of the serial UARTs.
I'm not particularly interested in serial, honestly. I want higher bandwidth.
SPI has no speed limit, and there are SPI devices that can handle nearly 100Mb/s. SATA, abbreviated from Serial AT Attachment, is a computer bus interface that connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices. Latest versions run many gigabits per second.
Of course they can -- if they're not being bit-banged by a 4MHz CPU, which would be my case. If I have to interface the CPU to ANYTHING, it may as well be an RPi which can then, itself, interface to EVERYTHING. (Mostly. Ideally. That's the plan anyway.)
