609700 2007-11-09 01:42:00 I am using a Maxtor 60GB backup powered by usb. Sometimes it takes along time to properly power up.
Questions: Are all usb ports powered? Is there any way of increasing the power output of a usb port? What other options are there?

Don't think so unless your use a dual USB plug so your one device is drawing power from 2 USB ports.
