Xbox – use a USB hub to plug in a lot of USB drives with profile and save game data in the Xbox 360

xbox-360

The Xbox 360 was made compatible with USB drives as storage in the spring. To get past limited USB ports in Xbox 360s, would it be possible to hook up a USB hub and make use of many USB drives. This would be useful for when there are 4 people with profiles on separate USB drives (for example).

I know USB hubs work in Xbox 360s. I am more wondering if the OS software in the Xbox 360 can support N (where N is any number) USB devices, each with profile and save game data.

I use a generic hub and it works.

Also note the new Xbox 360 has 6 ports, over the old one's three.
