A Silly Question about USB hubs - Maybe?

[peroni]

Hey All

A qq and possibly silly question about which USB hub I should get.

I've reached the point where I have more USB devices ( camera, guide camera, mount, soon to be filter wheel ) than I have USB ports on my laptop.

Is there a specific type/brand of USB hub that is needed for astro devices or will any one do?

Any brand will do. Make sure that it has its own power source though, because if you connect too many usb devices to a non powered usb hub you might has problems.

 Excellent, thanks. I've just ordered a powered one from Amazon.
