Hi - it's not clear what you by it doesn't have enough power.

Since it worked on the Win10 machine, I going presume by "not enough
power" you don't mean electrical power - you mean it's not as capable as
you had hoped.

In any case, I know nothing about Win10, but you need to figure out how
many bytes/sec you're able to receive at the default sampling rate of 10
MHz.

My guess would be using the command line

  hackrf_transfer -r NUL

If the number of bytes/sec doesn't equal approximately 2*(sampling
rate), then you need to do a binary search to determine your maximum
sampling rate

  hackrf_transfer -r NUL -s 5000000

Whey you find your maximum sampling rate, the optimal sampling rate may
be as low half of the maximum since you'll most likely have CPU load
from your SDR.

In short, USB I/O uses the CPU so the CPU could be the bottle neck even
with a USB 3.0 device.

Also, a hub can introduce timing problems.
