It is plugged into a 4 Port USB Hub (Model F5U014-OE) which is
plugged into the tower.
The ports on your G4 are USB 1.0 ports, so anything attached to them
is by default USB 1.0.
You need to buy a USB 2.0 PCI card so that you get 40x faster 480 Mbps
USB 2.0 port instead of the built-in 12 Mbps USB 1.0 speed. Then
attach your USB 2.0 hub to the USB 2.0 ports, and use the built-in 1.0
ports for your keyboard & mouse which are USB 1.0 devices only and
can't take advantage of USB 2.0 speed.
