No, the electronic circuit cannot be hacked through the computer to which the Treasure Chest is connected. The rotation of access to the various USB ports is managed by an electronic chip independent of the electronic circuit and inaccessible by the computer to which the electronic circuit is connected. There is no link or physical connection between this chip and the computer to which the electronic circuit is connected for periodic backups. The principle of operation is similar to that of a tape backup which alternates electronically and automatically instead of manually.
