Ahoy, matey! That's some pretty good rum the Japanese have been drinking in order to produce a USB hub that comes in the shape of a gold ingot. You won't be using carats to weigh this piece of treasure though, as it measures a hefty 2.4kg, making it the heaviest 8-port USB hub in the market currently despite not having a single ounce of gold. It just makes you wonder what lies inside this 19.6cm x 7.3cm x 4.9cm hub that results in the stated weight. Thanko is currently carrying the hub for $52, which is pretty pricey no thanks to the novelty factor.
