Powered USB Hub - ACASIS 16 Ports 90W USB 3.0 Data Port, Individual On/Off Switches, 12V/7.5A Power Adapter, 5Gbps High Speed, USB 3.0 Hub for Laptop, PC, Computer, Mobile HDD, Flash Drive

I purchased a 10 port AmazonBasic hub. I normally love AmazonBasic brand. Its good quality, it works, and never have any problems with it. But...the 10port hub was horrible. It would recognize by MacBook pro half the time. I would have to plug it into one port then into another. It had three charging ports and those were the only ones that worked. I decided to try this hub. Its AWESOME. Plus, I love how you can turn on and off the ports that are in use and when not in use. I have a Stream Deck I use with Adobe Character Animator. I only use it a couple of times a month and here I can press a button and save the energy. Love it!

I bought this hub to duplicate a bunch of flash drives. When it first arrived, everything fired up just fine, after I started my copy job I left it unattended for a few hours. On return, the hub had gotten so hot that the USB drives were disconnecting and reconnecting constantly within Windows. The hub was hot enough you couldnt hold it and I was concerned it would damage the finish on my desk. I exchanged it through Amazon - The new one is -less- hot, but is still very warm during use. I am only comfortable leaving it to copy with a small desktop fan keeping it cool the entire time. This is only an issue when using 7+ of the ports at the same time. On the plus side, it is very fast and the case is a solid metal construction.

I like it when I can switch on or off power from usb . Good for gamer lover

**UPDATE** I can now comment on longevity: After 2 years one bank of led lights went out. At around 2.5 years I started experiencing devices occasionally going offline and needing to be unplugged and plugged back in to operate normally again. At 3 years devices started constantly cutting out, so I finally replaced it. So it worked fine for about 2 years and slowly failed over another year before becoming unusable. I would have preferred to get more time out of it before trashing it, so lowered my review from 5 stars to 3 stars. **ORIGINAL REVIEW** Only owned it a few weeks, so cant comment on longevity, but I really like the functionality. First off, I bought the one with 16 ports, and I have them all filled. Prior to this I had to use multiple hubs and was still short a few. Id had some issues with my keyboard being plugging into other hubs, but not this one. All devices have worked fine. I wanted one with buttons on the left side. It just works better for my setup. My old 7 port hub with buttons had them on the right and it was harder see and reach them where I have it situated at the rear of my desk. Where you will place the hub may help you decide if you want left or right buttons. The lights are not bright, but viewable when I stand up to change the buttons. Better than no lights, though guess it would be nice if you could more easily see which buttons were up and which were down. Yet so far, not a big enough issue in my day to day use to mark it down. I have hubs that are all metal and heavier. While those feel better, this one is functioning better yet so far, so Im good with it. It stays in place and stays flat even without the extra weight.

I use this for my portable hard drives and have had no problems for a few months of use.

The first unit I got work as tested, but 4 ports that werent used stopped working a few days later. I got by by using my old USB hub in a daisy chain fashion while I contacted the seller to get a replacement hub. The customer service personal has been very nice in helping me sort out a replacement even though I shipped this from the USA to my home country, she got the unit sent from China to my home country straight. The replacement hub has been working without issues thus far and Im extremely pleased with the results, quality and function of it!

Love the USB ports and the light indicators. However, it DOES NOT WORK with one of the most important peripheral, USB dongle for the Keyboard!! I plugged in the Logitech (MK345) USB dongle and the computer was able to capture Some of the keys I typed.. When I plugged the dongle directly into the computer, it works fine... so frustrated!!! Buyers be aware

High quanltity material, easy to use, only thing missing was the USBC adapter. Still 5 stars would buy again from this company and this strip. I use to to power all the devices I ahve for flight simulator.the only thing I would ask for is a little clip hole on the top so I can hang it from a hook. I used one of those 3M and just stuck it to top that way i can hang it from the top.

I bought this because of the price and was incredibly disappointed. Although it does technically work with most devices, it causes constant connectivity problems with any external hard drive. It works fine as long as there is only one drive (Flash ore HDD) connected to it. As soon as you connect more than one drive it starts causing access errors and I/O failure errors in windows. You cant even copy files to and from drives if there is more than one connected. I switched to a Sabrent hub and everything works perfectly, so it is definitely a problem with this specific product. In addition I ran some throughput tests on it and it is only capable of delivering 1/3 the transfer speed it claims. (this is likely the same cause as all the I/O errors) Returned it.

I love this hub. Quality build, materials, layout, and function. But the wall AC plug is HUGE (as it incorporates the power adapter portion), and has the potential to completely clog an outlet or power strip. I would much prefer a normal plug and a separate power adapter box down the line, or even built into the USB hub itself.
