If I'm reading this right, then you are doing this:
USB Camera1 & USB Camera2------>USB 3.0 Hub----->USB 2.0 Port on laptop.
Connecting a USB 3.0 hub to a USB 2.0 port on your computer will not make the cameras run at USB 3.0. Your laptop only has capability for USB 2.0, therefore your USB 3.0 devices/hub would pass into your USB 2.0 port and be slowed to 2.0 speed.
The USB 3.0 hub will still work, albeit at USB 2.0 speeds.

@shar assuming your laptop has an expresscard slot, yes, that should give you USB 3 speeds – bertieb Sep 23 '15 at 14:02
