i need a usb hub

i need a usb hub with lots of usbs extremely fast like no lag at all and i would like to mount it somehow to a desk. is it possible? want to plug it in to the back of my notebook.

 

how many ports is "lots of usbs"?

since USB supports daisy chaining it won't really be an issue with speed as long as it's a 2.0 port and a 2.0 hub, any speed issues will be caused by deferred procedure calls from too much demanding hardware (like if you're using a USB sound card, USB NIC, etc)

 

well i wanted to plug in a g5 mouse my iphone and usb speakers all the time. like those will always be in. so will this cause an issue?

 

it will be a problem if those draw much power as an USB-hub is splitting one(1) usb-port into several with the help of the USBports on the hub. So you'll share all those devices on 1 usb-port. Be sure to get an externally powered USB-hub if you wanna be sure that it works fine.

 

ok guys i think i found a nice one its expensive 65 dollars. but its ac powered and its belkin so it has to be good and go really good reviews. thanks guys!

 

$65 is quite expensive for a Belkin hub. Better shop around.

I only paid like half of that for an AC powered Logitech hub.

 

ya but belkin has very good quality and has gotten rave reviews of powering exactly what i want it to gaming gear high quality bose speakers ect so I think im going to stick with it sir.

 

65 bucks for a usb hub? where is that at? sounds like best buys prices haha.

 

i live in canada hahahahaha and its a high speed one not a peice of junk that you buy at the dollar store sir.

 

Go with Belkin. I too am looking for a good USB hub and found the NBR review of a few belkin ones useful. Average price: USD $35. The units seem decent to me.
