[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1104053, member: 46727"] Simply put, your USB hub is confusing the system into thinking that when the mat is powered down, the USB connection the hub is employing is no longer in use, hence, it turns it off and that turns off your hard drive. Doesn't matter for the printer since it's self powered. Solution: Don't use the hub or buy a chill mat or stand that is self powered. [/QUOTE]
