Hi Guys,

I was looking on ebay to see what accesories I can pick up for the PS3 and can see lots that are USB devices but I only see 2 USB ports on my PS3 console..

Can I use a USB hub to add more devices to the console and if so can any usb hub work and is there a limit?

Thanks in advance
L :-)

No lmiit to how many USB devices but a limit to power available to them eg. you can't run 5 PortaHDD k mate.

But yes you can run multiple USB devices.
