Will USB 2.0 devices work correctly in this hub?

Yes. I never consider what version of USB I'm using. My iDsonix is plugged into the 3.0 port on my Dell XPS laptop.
2081418
I use a mixture of USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices. Everything I have connected to this hub worked as expected.

device is excellent. Works well with both USB 3.0 and 2.0. also able to charge multiple devices simultaneously. Convenient power switches to deactivate certain devices when you wish. Extremely happy with this product

Yes, I have used memory sticks, printers, portable drives and several other media devices with USB 2 interfaces and they work fine as well as my newer USB 3 devices.
2081421
Yes, yes they will. In the future may I suggest doing a quick search on google to quickly find answers to generic questions that do not pertain to the product specifically.

I'm using both USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices without an issue. iPad 2, iPod Touch 3G, iPod Touch 5G, Samsung Galaxy, WD My Passport, Avid MBox, all working fine.

It needs 2 powered USB ports to operated correctly. You would need would need 2 hubs

I know of no reason why this wouldn't work. The USB hub should work with any USB device. I use the hub with a mouse, a keyboard, a Zune player, and a drive.

I have USB3 hub plugged into mine, and it works great. Then again, the USB ports on my MBP work also.

If it can support USB 2.0, I see no reason why it would not work perfectly.

Yes this External HD work perfectly with USB 2.0, I have a Macbook and work well.. I think if you devices ( Boxee or Roku) have usb 2.0 should work well.. I hope I have helped.

Hi Jason, yes it works fine on a 2.0 port (of course the IO rate is lower).

USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0. The Hub will work with you Laptop but it will still not give USB 3.0 Speeds it will just perform like USB 2 Hub

It well work but at USB 2.0 speeds. I checked mine, when I plugged it into a USB 2.0 port, Win7 loaded a generic USB 2 driver and it appeared in explorer. When you upgrade to a USB 3 capability it well need it's 3.0 driver installed.This is a good hub, it has it's own power supply. I use it to power Raspberry pi's.

This is USB 2.It will work with USB 3.0. I do not see any improvement in performance.

Yes it will work, you will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds and duplex, but it will work.

Correct. As in the description...2 of the 4 USB ports on top are 3.0. Of course, your mainboard will need to have 3.0 headers to connect these to.

Yes. All USB 3 hubs are backward compatible with USB 1 and 2. This one should work for all three.

Yes absolutely,but speed wont be same as usb3.0. So hence you will get regular speed with USB 2.0.
