Such thing as USB3 hub that fast-transfers within itself? (2 replies)

Like if a Pogoplug (or router etc) had a USB 3.0 hub plugged into a USB slot, and you had two external hard drives (USB 3.0) plugged into the hub.

Can you instruct External Drive 1 to copy to External Drive 2 at the super speed?

Almost like the old days FXP-ing an FTP transfer where, from your cruelly slow dialup connection you're instructing fast computer A to transfer over T3 to fast computer B? If that makes sense.

As-is, copying one to another takes that trip to the computer and sends it back to the other, which for small items is okay.
