Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I finally got a new laptop with a lone USB 3.0 port. I'm now looking at getting a USB 3.0 hub with a power adapter so I can use both of my USB 3.0 hard drives at faster speeds. I've read lots of horror stories where some hubs either don't come with power adapters -- and as a consequence the portable drives don't work with them properly -- or they are designed poorly which results in USB 2.0 speeds. Or, the hard drives keep getting disconnected. Do your readers have any suggestions or experience using USB 3.0 hubs? Thanks!"
@Martin Andreas Kruse - We've just landed 2 Mitsubishi iMiev prototypes here in New Zealand (my wife is the EV project leader). The iMiev is awesome. Once you drive it you've changed. The feeling is like when you first got your iPhone - I couldn't take the smile off my face. The iMiev is the same. I've had a good drive in it and it rocks. Easily hit 125km/hr (private road) with more room in the engine (and three people in the car). They are ultra quiet, no vibration, no noise, awesome pickup. EVs are the future - I'm convinced.

Thanks for the info :) I sooo envy you! I'm going to buy one of these when they land next year here in Denmark. I would so like to try one out now though ;) Well if the feeling is like when I received my iPhone, then I look very much forward to it :D Thanks for the head up! Wish you and your wife all good luck with testing the vehicle out.
KR, Martin Andreas
And pluss. Imagine this: I'm Faroese (as in born and raised in Faroe Islands...look it up) and the longest distance you can drive on those islands, in the middle of the North Atlantic ocean, is some 70 km(!). Now with these cars in Faroe Islands, it's easy to imagine how many gasoline cars could be replaced by cars like imiev and the like (like every single one ;)). But as of right now I study in Århus, Denmark, but even here I could travel allmost to the capitol (even though I would never do that as the parking is very expensive), or to the most northern or southern part of the country on one charge as of todays proclaimed range of some 160 km. Now that is nice. Especially taking into consideration that Mitsubishi is going to place quick charging stations around in the country around the same time the are set to be sold here :)
Very nice indeed :)
