Thought occurred to me, has anyone hooked up USB 3.0 hubs or 2.0 hubs, and used them for I/O port expansion through USB successfully/unsuccesssfully?
If so what were your experiences? Did it work as it should?
So a little background, though I have not done anything with a Rock64 yet, but spent 30+ years working Unix/Linux so will see how I fair with this.
USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 hubs will work just fine (especially powered ones). I would not recommend using them for storage - for instance, multiple HDD's. But for plugging in additional USB peripherals such as BT, WiFi, keyboard, etc., they'll work as expected.
