Looks like we have a winner. I will be shocked if there is a better deal. Thank you sir.

You should be able to run 8 Erupters with it:

i just plugged one of my minners in and it is currently running at 672MH/s  Shocked Huh Tongue
yeah it only looks like that.  you need to let it settle in for a while and you'll see your true hashrate.  it should average out between 320 - 340MH/s

Did you use the settings Kano tested with CGMiner?

That anker does look nicer but its more than double the price. Gonna have to check out that roswill first.
i purchased 2 of these http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003Z4G3I6/ref=pe_309540_26725410_item and ran 5 on each (2 on one side, 1 on other side, 2 on top).  worked great, good spacing for heat disbursement.  if you are trying to run all them off 1 hub then i dont know where to direct you.

This link show's Kano's settings to get his working.

Also start with just one device until you get it working and then start adding more, one at a time.

Not a good sign if paint is melting off the heatsink.  Start with the simplest configuration and get it working, then start adding complexity.

LOL Rosewill is Newegg's in-house brand, and Amazon sells Newegg's USB hubs cheaper than Newegg does? That's crazy.

Ya Newegg is my first place I look, with Amazon second. I hardly ever buy computer stuff off ebay, unless I can't find it elsewhere.

IIRC, Kano said that these can act really funky if they get too hot while mining. I'm assuming yours are the ones without the heatsinks? Get a few packs of these, and throw 1 or 2 or whatever you can fit on the back of each board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835708009

Then blow your fans in a directed path at all the heatsinks, and see if your HW errors go down.
