Connecting multiple external hard drives to a usb hub

[sallyayne]

Hello, Can I connect 2 external hard drives and a card reader to a usb hub and if so please specify the specs I should look for. Thank you.

Oh yes, I understand and certainly know that it is doable, but what I was looking for: would the power of a usb hub suffice for a couple of external hard drives. But I do thank you for your answer.
