USB hub for the 360
I have run out of USB ports on my 360, so I'm looking at a USB Hub.
I only have 3 on my 360, and use the following devices
Wi-fi adaptor
2 wired controllers
Turtle beach headphones
Live camera
I have read that self powered hubs can burn out the port. So I am thinking of getting a powered one, but are there any special requirements for the xbox, or will any one do?

Re: USB hub for the 360
Any third party peripherals, beyond those for which they are designed to accept, for games consoles can and will cause some damage or reduce usability. The console has as many ports as it is able to provide adequate service for.

Re: USB hub for the 360
Why do you use wired controllers?

I don't see how three ports is enough?
I hav 3 on mine, one at the back for the wi-fi (wired is not an option), and 2 at the front, which I plug my wired controller and Turtle beach headphones.
So if I want a web chat or buy kinnect I cannot plug it in.

Because my wireless died and I cannot afford the cost.
