Not sure what you mean by any hashrate. If your hub is powered and is min 3A, that is sufficient to run Hex full speed as in my post above.

I guess he might have meant "what happens if I plug it into a standard USB 3 port? Will it hash at a lower rate with lower current, or will it not work at all?"

With possible follow-up question "what if I plug it into a USB charging port on my computer?" (the answer to that, depending on the above, being "check the maximum current it can deliver, it might be noted near the port itself or you should be able to find it in your computer's documentation/motherboard manufacturer's website)

Yes that question. Is it possible to operate at any hashrate if you plug it in a regular usb 2.0 or usb 3.0 directly on a computer motherboard? Not in a usb hub. I know usb 2.0 can provide 0.5A and usb 3.0 around 0.9A (?) so, will it hash, at what speed? Cool
