You can get a powered hub and insert the USB memory into the
powered hub. But you need to see why you're only getting
1.1. It could be driver or hardware. Check the properties
for the hubs and ports. Also, keep in mind, some
motherboards with USB 2.0 only had 2.0 on some of the ports,
see your mobo manual/spec sheet to see what you have.
