Is a USB hub compatible with a PS3 40 gig version? I'm wondering about getting the game "Rock Band", which requires more than 2 usb slots-but my PS3 only has 2 usb slots (40 gig version). So, I'm wondering if I go out and buy a usb hub, will it work when I plug in more than one thing to it? Will everything work OK with the PS3 when I have a mic and drums plugged into a usb hub?

I'm not willing to mod my PS3 to add in a few extra usb slots (read about that online).

Any help would be greatly appreciated! thumbup2.gif

I'm not expert when it comes to PS3 hardware. But logicly I'm guessing it should work, the USB hub doesn't require any software installation it should work and it's just compressing 4 USB ports into one. I found a USB hub which should work Here
