Couple of quick questions

Glad that’s working for you. :smiley:

The one thing I should have cautioned you (or anyone else reading this) about, though, is power…

If you have an unpowered hub, and connect a USB-powered drive to it, the possibility exists for the drive to not get sufficient power and become corrupted.  If the USB hard drive is externally powered and/or the hub is externally powered, you shouldn’t have any issues.
