If you want a device to make your computer to freeze, and not startup, this is the device you are looking for! Oh and did I mention that some of my devices didn't even work on it? And it is UGLY! This is my first and last product from "Macally"! Don't make the same mistake I did!
good combo hub, but doesn't integrate the two
Rating: 4/5
This single hub has three firewire jacks, four usb 2.0 jacks, and 1 usb 2.0 upload jack. Don't let the earlier review lead you astray -- This will not let you use USB 2.0 devices through a firewire port. The firewire connections are separate from the USB connections and if you want both you need to connect two wires from the hub to your computer, one to the USB interface in your computer and another to the firewire interface.
Otherwise it's nice looking and seems to work well enough.
I don't think it can do that
Rating: 5/5
This is the only hub I can find that has both USB and Firewire ports, which makes it a cheap sort-of docking station for a laptop.
... I don't think it is possible to upgrade to USB 2 simply by plugging in a USB 2 hub into a USB 1.1 port. The bus controller speed is still 1.1 on the actual computer, so the signal will slow down when it hits the USB port on the Cube. Sorry.
