You might plug in a keyboard, mouse, external drive, webcam, and card reader at the same time and expect each new socket to behave like a separate port on the computer.</p> <p>The important detail is that those devices usually still reach the computer through the hub&rsquo;s single upstream USB connection. When several devices need to transfer substantial amounts of data at once, they can therefore compete for the capacity of that shared connection.</p>
