USB header

Does anybody know of an adapter cable that will allow 2 USB hook-ups from 1 USB header?

Something like a "Y" adapter: 1female end (plugs into the mobo header), 2 male ends (to plug 2 internal devices into).

Sounds like you need a USB hub you can pick those up almost any where.

I think Trek is talking about internally.

I have never seen an internal USB header splitter, but in theory, you should be able to make one. I bet you could even get the goodies at Radio Schlock.

EDIT: I LIED!!! One of the BB advertisers has one...

Even if it isn't perfect, a quick soldering Iron job and your golden.

Yes, I'm talkin for internal hook-ups.

I want to run an internal card reader (combo floppy drive/card reader) and the built in case USB plugs.

I may just have to make one.

(I see $$$$$$$$$ in my future.............)

Yes.....I may need to start with something like that.....but I need "male" connectors on the two piece end.
