Quick question about the hubs. I saw some with 5+ ports. Using USB 2.0 I know I’ll have some limitations on speed, but could I for instance, plug 5 HDDs and this speed would be evenly divided among then (given a moment where they all would get written at the same time)? If only 1 HDD is being written, would it get this full speed? Is this math that simple or are there more things that I’m not considering?
I never heard of any of those SBCs. Pretty interesting, thanks for the tip!
