When buying usb hubs for the minion boards, is their any reason to get USB 3.0 or will USB 2.0 do just fine? Planning on having them go in a TP-link type setup.

The receiving interface is USB2 from what I remember reading, some people reported probs with USB3, i read it in the TPLink setup/guide thread, link to it is available in this thread i think Huh

Having said that @wiwi reported USB3 was good for him, so obviously not all USB3 is bad, luck of the draw I suppose.

You should also try and get a hub that will accept DC12V power supply, and power it from one of the boards PSUs (less power use and less power issues like ripple and groudloop).

Same goes for TPLink, cut it's power cable and wire to a board PSUs +5V line if you can.
