As my Macbook only has two USB ports, I'm forced to use an external USB hub. I was wondering if the speeds of external hard drives will be slower if I have them plugged into the external ports instead of directly into my MB? This is the hub I'm using if it helps: http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=428942
Got a tip for us?
