I'd like to have a lot of USB3 drives connected to my computer all at once for a big project that's taking footage from a lot of different places.

I don't even know if this "works," but if it does, can someone recommend a great USB3.0 hub that I could use with a macbook pro retina
 
This works, but you really ought to consolidate all your assets onto a single large thunderbolt Raid drive. You're playing with fire juggling assets from multiple external drives, and you're going to be bottlenecked to the speed of the single USB port the hub is connected to.
 
Thanks. I know this. I have a huge pile of drives given to me by a client, and I have to sift thru all of them and make a basic assembly. Maybe after I figure out what the clips we need to copy to the thunderbolt raid, I'll do that. But right now I need an easy way to sit back and see ALL the drives at once, and search them.

Does it matter which hub I get, or just as long as it says USB3
