Connected it to a 4-port powered USB 2.0 hub. Memory sticks worked fine, even a 64GB stick, but my 1TB HDD wasn't recognized. A USB mouse also connected fine, and all three at the same time. In essence it means almost limitless expansion possibilities.
Your 1TB HDD is probably formated as NTSF, which the Tab 2 doesn't support (or recognize). You can re-format your HDD and it will probably work on a powered hub, although you will be limited to a max 4GB file size.

Just checked, the 1 TB HDD is formated as FAT 32.
Maybe the powered hub needs more juice?

$199 at Best Buy now.

This device is stuck IMHO with the Nexus 7 and KFHD 7" tablets regarding their specs and with the new Nook coming shortly as well.

When comparing specs alone, I would agree. But in actual practical use, it is absolutely fine. If anyone is interested in getting one I'd highly recommend finding the Student Edition bundle on sale somewhere. It is well worth it.

I concur.
SE is value for your money. Attaching the keyboard and you have a decent device for text input. I can see a real estate agent sitting in Starbucks and filling out an Excel sheet for a new property.
