    as long as they're not usb 1.1, there is not a lot of difference imo... Just go for the cheapeast 4 port one.

    when it comes to things like this, as long as it is usb 2.0 then you wont really have a problem with it no matter how much you pay for it. And remember, if you buy something really cheap you dont mind as much if it goes wrong! Cheaper to replace if need be!!

    What's about current supply.
    I only know it from PC-Cards, they aren't able to supply a USB HDD, because they can't offer enough current.
    Have Express cards the same problems?
