If you use USB Hubs you could theoretically add as many as you want on a single USB port if you daisy chain the Hubs (if it's a really large number some of the Hubs must have external power). Granted, performance is limited. Never tried it, though, so maybe there are further limitations. permalink fedilink source parent
