I'd be happy with a USB 3.0 hub that works well with my 15" Retina MacBook Pro.

I haven't horsed with USB 3.0 anything as I have no need.

But I wonder if those dongles that aren't USB 3 (or at least I don't believe they are) are bringing an issue to the table when used with a USB 3 hub?

The specs say it shouldn't be an issue, but then...

Lloyd, and everyone.....

WHY the fascination with my dongles???

(1) I tested with one device connected to the hub: an Apple USB SuperDrive (2) Amazon reviews for every single USB 3.0 hub I checked mentioned problems with Retina MacBook Pros

Not fascinated with them, they are just something outside of the norm.
