[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1491142, member: 110816"] Yes, do isolate the problem specifically to the Mac Pro or anything else you have in line..unless you buy a very pricey hub, most of them are designed/developed using minimal and cheap electronics that will fail if you look at them the wrong way. The USB ports on the Mac's Logic Board, on the other hand, should have enough protection around it to isolate the bus from wire issues that can readily happen. If plugging into the Mac is making the devices behave properly, then replace the USB hub or just continue with plugging the devices directly into the Mac.. [/QUOTE]
