Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I finally got a new laptop with a lone USB 3.0 port. I'm now looking at getting a USB 3.0 hub with a power adapter so I can use both of my USB 3.0 hard drives at faster speeds. I've read lots of horror stories where some hubs either don't come with power adapters -- and as a consequence the portable drives don't work with them properly -- or they are designed poorly which results in USB 2.0 speeds. Or, the hard drives keep getting disconnected. Do your readers have any suggestions or experience using USB 3.0 hubs? Thanks!"
Does the CAT5 idea transfer the sound quality at a good enough level, considering how much we all spend on high quality speaker cable ?
And you probably spend $100 or more on composite cables too. The cable myth is a crock. Has been and always will be. Lamp cord works just as good.
