Does anyone know if I can daisy chain powered usb hubs to mine with Gekkoscience Newpacs? My laptop doesn’t have enough USB ports; so I was wondering whether my 3rd powered hub could be connected to the 2nd via usb and still work? Or would that damage the miners?
The only concern is that the power hub has enough power per-port available and how it divvies it up. Some like the 7-port one from Plugable and only supply full power to 3 pairs of ports: 1, 3, 5. Ports 2,4,6 & 7 share regulated power with those 1st 3 I listed.
