Hi Ky!

 KM> USB extender cables, long and short (short is a 5 pack):

Will save and check out later.  LIS in the previous message, I used 
'tight' to mean running low on the number of free ports on hub.
 
And USB extender cables might not be a bad thing to have on hand; 
haven't run into the problem with USB but did with HDMI: up here the 
cable wouldn't fit into the rear panel port because the head or whatever
the plastic grab-on-to portion is called was a too big and hit the metal
of the case.  Used a 1' HDMI extension (and coupler, of course).



 KM> Saves a whole lot of trouble with stupidly-positioned ports and
 KM> oversized plugs.
 
I've used extension cables just because the port was on the rear panel,
the computer housed in a cubbyhole of sorts, and sometimes a bother to 
install or even not able to install a front panel port.


 KM> They have all kinds of small techie components and tools. Was
 KM> very pleased and now they're my go-to for USB stuff.

Will check out -- and I've got around 90% of by "COVID-19" check from the
government!
