LaCie's Hub4 quadruples your USB 3.0 pleasure

Even in their prime, USB hubs were never the sexiest part of a tech
geek's shopping trip -- people would typically grab the most
functional (or crazy) looking option and move on to picking out their
next set of "future-proof" RAM sticks. We're not convinced LaCie's
really going to change all that with its Hub4, but it sure is trying
hard by giving it a curvaceous exterior and those oh-so-desirable blue
USB jacks. Yes, the USB 3.0 color coding is large and in charge here,
highlighting a full quartet of ports for all that SuperSpeed gear
you've been stashing. Of course, you'll still need at least one 3.0
connector on your computer to make the most of this USB peripheral
(otherwise you'll have a very curvy and very standard USB 2.0 hub),
but if that's already accounted for, you'll just need $59.99 and the
source link to get yourself connected to the future.
