I have iMac with only two thunderbolt slots. I need an adapter to allow me to connect my printer, scanner, and backup disk. Which one do I need?

Which adapter do I need to connect my printer, scanner, backup disk etc. I have a third party USB 3 adapter with 6 USB 3 slots? It can also serve USB 2 apps.

I have the 24" iMac with only 2 slots both of which are Thunderbolt.
