[mobilagy]

my work requires to connect many usb devies which consumes alot voltes such as software dongles & boxes ; so i want to know which is more suitable to use ? ; usb hub or usb pci card ?

Well a external powered hub would be easier and quicker. No cases to open, no extra load on the computer PSU etc.

Yeah I always go with hubs over PCI cards, I would go for that.

You can get a USB hub with external power.

Im guessing thats what hes on about

 

[lhuser]

He's best set for that, rather than using PSU's power.
