What are people doing for a USB port extender?

3 USB ports isnt enough unfortunately.

I am using the 3 as follows...

1. G-Raid with dual 6 TB drives in Raid 1 configuration.

2. CineRaid hard drive replicator, has dual slots that I have a 2TB and 480GB SSD plugged into for extra memory.

3. Anker USB port replicator

The Anker port replicator works fine for attaching a camera card reader, thumbwheeled mouse (I have always used the thumb wheeled versions and cant go back hence no go for mouse that came with system), LG BlueRay drive/burner, I use the extra powered USB ports to charge my ipads or iphone (works great for this) but have to move the plug over if I want to back up one of the iDevices I have.

My problem comes about when I try to plug in my CFast reader with a camera card in it, or if I try to plug the new G-Raid into the port extender, my mouse quits working completely.

Does anyone have a solution for USB port extender that doesnt choke up like this? I went with the Anker because I read somewhere that the LG BlueRay device would work with it and this is fine.....but now I need to do more and well......you see the problem.

What are others doing?

By the way, this is the first problem I have encountered with the Studio and still think it is a top notch device....Help on this issue please!
