[QUOTE="krs, post: 1864110, member: 67742"] [USER=193327]@Marrk[/USER] - You said you had a ca. 2010 MBp - if it happens to be "circa" as in early 2011, the Mac would have a Thunderbolt port on it an you can get adapters and/or hubs that plug into the Thunderbolt port and provide USB 3.x ports for much higher speeds than USB 2.x USB 3.x is backwards compatible with USB 2.x so any USB 2.x devices you might have will work as well. If there is no Thunderbolt port but only USB 2.x ports, then pretty much any brand name USB 2 hub should be fine. Powered would be better than un-powered, but then the hub is not as portable having to plug it in. [/QUOTE]
