Re: USB Hub killed two Macs... ???

To the best of my knowledge (and I have studied electronics at Uni for 4 years) a powered hub simply boosts the signal out to the connected devices, and can be used as an unpowered hub with the PSU unplugged.

Re: USB Hub killed two Macs... ???

When I worked at a computer store and USB first came out, I was told by an Intel rep that powered hubs should be plugged in when the computer is off. I have followed this info since 1997, and recommend it to anyone who buys a powered hub. Regular USB perhipials are just fine to hot plug. Ben On M
