Any issues with two HD-PVRs?

In the Boxing Day sales here in Canada I was able to pick up a new cable box (SA4250HD) and an HD-PVR. I will therefore have two HD-PVRs connected to my Sage server running WHS. I will be using firewire to change channels for these boxes. I have been running one HD-PVR with my old Sage Server (Vista HP) for about 4 months with very few problems - albeit with only stereo sound.

Any issues to be aware of when you are using two HD-PVRs? I plan on using the original drivers that came with my first HD-PVR which are, I believe version 1.0B. I would like to get DD5.1 but there seem issues with all other drivers. I assume that you should always plug the HD-PVR into USB ports directly on your PC as opposed to USB hubs - correct?
