Hi

I have a tree(*) of USB-Hubs with Devices that i want to be able to switch off via a Switch. But as, at least, the first USB-Hub connected to the computer justs switches over from Self-Powered to Bus-Powered it doesn't switch off properly.

Can i configure the "Root" Port where i connected the first Hub so that it doesn't allow a Bus-Powered Devices, resulting in switching off the Hub when i cut it's power?



*:
I designed it this way:
a 4 Port hub, where another 4 port hub is connected to each port and where another "7" Port Hub is connected to each of the 16 Ports resulting in 112 "End"-Ports. For every 4 HDDs i connect to these "End"-Ports i connect a USB-Power-Switching-Device for switching on/off these 4 HDDs individually. Resulting in the possibility to have 88 HDDs connected which can all be switch on/off individually. Currently i have reached 33 HDDs (7.5 TB) resulting in 3x4 Port-HUBs, 6x7-Port-Hubs and 9xPower-Switch-Device. As all these Hubs & Power-Switches eat 80Watts of power, even with none of the HDDs switched on, i want to switch off the whole array when i'm not using it. Currently i have to physically disconnect the first Hub to properly switch everything off.
