USB 3 hub expansion for devices

SandTadpole7943 · Apr 22, 2016

hi,

I want to purchase a 3 -4 port usb3 hub to use with my Logitech G920 wheel but there doesn't seem to be any hubs that state they will work with the Logitech wheel.

I've already purchased a few powered hubs, but the G920 wheel won't work with any of them.

It only works when the wheel is connected directly to the Xbox usd 3 ports.

Any help would be appreciated.

regards

:)

Do usb hubs work with xbox 360?

i want to make a usb hub with 6 ports in it. i know it might be alot of work. i have seen other topic about usb hubs to hook up controllers, but i am wondering if you can have a hub where you plug it into the console and you plug 6 separate usb storage devices
into the hub, and all 6 appear as different devices in the console storage page. any help would be apreciated. ive seen somewhere that the xbox only lets you have 3 usb storage devices active at once.

uhhhh huh

OK, so like I have 3 usb storage devices and 5 usb ports plus a usb port hub but i can only use 2 storage devices at once. Is this a limit on 360's abilities or is there something I can do to access my third device?

I always wondered if a usb hub would work on the xbox never thought about thinking will it work on the device.

I would assume there would be no problem either way as they are a fairly simple and standard bit of kit, but MS support might be a better choice for clarity.

Hello SandTandpole7943,

There are some USB 3.0 Hubs for the Xbox One. You can use any USB 3.0 Hub that works on a computer for that matter.

An Xbox branded USB 3.0 Hub is the dreamGEAR Xbox One 3.0 USB Hub (although is not an Xbox nor Microsoft product).

If you want an attached-to-the-console 3.0 Hub; you can try the Collective Minds 2.5" Hard Drive Enclosure & 3 Front USB 3.0 Ports Media HUB - Xbox One that also lets you put an Internal Hard Drive inside of it.

Both can be bought on Amazon.

Hello, JessicaB87 my name is Oskayra I am independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.

The Xbox Series X does have only one USB port on the front, which can be limiting when connecting multiple USB devices. However, there are a couple of ways to connect two USB microphones for Let's Sing 2023 on your Xbox Series X.

Option 1: USB Hub

The most straightforward solution is to use a USB hub. A USB hub is a device that allows you to connect multiple USB devices to a single USB port. You can connect the two USB microphones to the USB hub, and then plug the USB hub into the Xbox Series X's front USB port.

Option 2: USB Adapter

If you don't have a USB hub, you can use a USB adapter. A USB adapter is a device that allows you to connect a USB device to a different type of port, such as an audio jack or a microphone jack. You can connect one of the USB microphones to the Xbox Series X's controller using an adapter, and then connect the other microphone to the front USB port.

Which option is better?

The better option for you will depend on your specific needs and preferences. A USB hub is the more versatile option, as it will allow you to connect more USB devices in the future. However, a USB adapter is a more affordable option, and it will be smaller and more portable.

I hope this helps! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions or need additional clarification.

No. Only the device that has the USB plug in it can see the hub and devices connected to it.
