Is there a 24 port USB Hub? - Overclock.net

Do they make 24 port usb hubs anywhere? I've got four 5-7 port usb hubs here and they're all full. I had to get these because the computer ports were full to and I need more usb ports

I don't think I've seen anything over 8 ports.

doesnt a USB hub split the power of 1 usb port to multiple usb ports? never seemed like such a good idea to me.

If a hub uses more than 4-ports, it requires a power adapter (IIRC).

I think it does, all my big usb items are on the mobo's usb ports (eg. keyboard, mouse, webcam) and then I've got the 3 hubs hooked to the mobo's ports as well. That fills all 6 ports on my mobo. I've got two 7 port hubs and 1 5 port hub. One 7 port is full and the other 7 port has 5 ports taken.

I'm trying to come up with some way to get em all on the same hub so it's easier to cable manage and all. The hubs I've got right now are all weird shapes and sizes lol.
