Anyone have suggestions for a powered USB Hub for a Mac Mini? I'm thinking of using three of the Mac USB ports for iLok, Mbox, an external drive and then the fourth Mac USB port for the powered USB HUB for mouse, keyboard, etc.

I'm running a Belkins hub with my Mac Mini. 5 ports on back side, 2 on front. Works fine.

I'm using an un-powered hub for a few of my low power use peripherals with no problem, saving the on-board USB outlets for more critical items.

I'm thinking 3.0 since it is backwards compatible with devices I have now.
