Would a non-powered USB hub work?

My HDVP2 is on the way, and since I plan to connect more than one disk to it, I need a USB hub. I'd like to know if it's possible to use a non-powered USB hub with external disks which have their own power. Has anyone tried this?

Yes, but you only can access one at a time.

That's fine, I think. I just want to play video, and I can only play one video at a time, right?

That's right to the point. Hope you enjoy it when it gets to you. I do enjoy it.

BTW you can not connect more than one USB memory device at a time, i.e if you use a hub and plug in 2 memory sticks only 1 will be recognized im afraid, a drive with multiple partitions can be seen but multiple, seperate USB sticks can not

you can of course have the internal drive, USB stick and SD card all in at once, they will all be seen and you will need to select, by the DEVICE button on the remote, which one you want to access at that time
