The most I have run at the same time
Orion ST80 ASI120MM ASCOM PHD HUB #1 PORT #1 on USB2 #1
HEQ6 EQMOD HUB #1 PORT #2 on USB2 #1
Logitech F310 HUB #1 PORT #3 on USB2 #1
Mouse HUB #1 PORT #4 on USB2 #1
C925 ASI174 SharpCap USB3 #1
Orion ED80T EOS1100D HUB #2 PORT #1 USB3 #2
Orion 50 Mini DMK21AU618 HUB #2 PORT #2 USB3 #2
Notes:
ASI174 needs dedicated USB3 port for speed but will run on USB2 and iffy re hubs (USB2/3).
ASI120MM needs USB2 but hubs OK
Canon Liveview used exposure/framing but EOS1100D capture to card and display off as noise <1/2 that for Liveview.
SharpCap happy with ASI174 when ASI120MM handled by ASCOM driver but not otherwise.
Too much load on user using one display but laptop didn't care.
Usually use two laptops, one for mount + finder + extras, the other for main capture (and not so many things at once).
