Can I use a powered USB hub to connect multiple external HDs?

I purchased a second WD external HD, and I wondered if, since the Airport Extreme has only one USB port, can I use a powered USB hup to connect them both?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Yes, make sure it is a powered hub with its own separate power supply.
