The hub works fine still, but somehow
this seems wrong. Has anyone else seen sparks between USB plugs and
their cases?
Your might try rotating the plug of the computer OR the power supply
of the hub to bring the two sources into phase although it is probably
harmless.

So I'm looking at a few options, the LaCie Quadra among them . . .
After using USB drives for a while now, I gotta put in another vote
for firewire. Even if it's just FW400, it will really really really
outperform USB. Definitely worth the xtra $.
This is from out of phase ac connection, you would be wise to get a plug
checker at the electrical store, they cost about $ 5. with lights to tell you
the wiring error, but you still can cause this even after the check passes the
wiring by using non-polarized plugs.
This is a quick fix.

FWIW, using a 7200 RPM drive as a USB 2.0 or even FW 400 attached
external drive doesn't really buy you anything

You may have a coolant leak that conducts electricity from the PSU to your
USB device. Just an insane thought, but it happened to me. Has the computer
had any wierd operation?

Hmmm, I do like the idea of using two HD's as you've described. I am
tempted to just go for an early G5 tower.
However (embarrassed lowering of head) I am so far not behind the
8ball I do not even know about Dual processors. For instance, is a
'Dual 1.0 GHz' made of two 1.0 GHz processors side by
