High Power USB hub port...

Family pressures were brought to bear on me yesterday and I had to go to
Costco. So, to do my part to keep America and China strong I bought a
SanDisk 2 gigabyte flash drive.

The specs on this gizmo claim to need a "high power USB hub port". So I
looked briefly at Dell dot com but couldn't learn if my Precision M-60 or my
Inspiron 1705 has such a port.

Can you please help me? Point me to a reference on the Dell site or on the
USB.org site? Or explain that the wording "hub port" means I need an
external hub to run this gizmo? (I'll go look at sandisk.com as well).

Thanks in advance!
