Powered USB Hub, atolla Aluminum 5-Port USB 3.0 Hub with 4 USB 3.0 Data Ports and 1 USB Smart Charging Port, USB Splitter with 5V/3A Power Adapter and Individual Switches

If I was designing, I would have light go out when computer shuts down

I received the product in a day, plugged it in and it worked like a charm. Now I can continue to use my lab top which originally had three USB ports, two of which, for some strange reason, stopped working. I like the fact that the unit has a charging USB port and lights to let you know it is working and the other cool thing is that the ports can be turned on and off.

This is exactly what I needed for copying data between two external 2.5 disks. My laptop has only one high-speed USB port, and the other two USB ports (USB 1.1/2.0) are taken by mouse and keyboard receivers so I needed a powered USB hub. This one had the right price and has been working beautifully for nearly a month. I recommend it!

It works great

Was hoping to get a quality powered USB hub. Unfortunately, the red port (charge only) has stopped working in a little over 7 months after purchase. It is very disappointing because up to that point it worked flawlessly. I wonder how long until rest of the ports stop working.

In general, I like the USB hub, but the power cord is too short by at least a foot. I am using this device to replace an older device, and am frustrated that I have to rearrange my power setup to accommodate the short cord. It would be more convenient if the seller provided different power adapter cord lengths as an option that could be selected at the time of purchase.

This is the 3rd or 4th item Ive gotten from them. In general, all my computers with external USB items seem to be running better with powered hubs. We have webcams and powered speakers being used mostly for homeschooling. Being able to change a tablet at the same time is nice too! The only catch is not all the powered units offered on Amazon come with a power supply (my first one didnt), so make sure you ensure it has the power adapter is included if you need it.

Works as promised, long cord

I needed a hub for computer with just 2 usb ports...and this fits the bill and more. You have a specific one that charges and 4 other ports for all the various computer peripherals that one may need. I got tired of plugging and unplugging which wears out the port so this is saving me from port failure of the future. I especially love that the individual ports can be turned off with just a button and no unplugging...so again, no plugging and unplugging. I use this to power a light, 2 hard drives, charge my ipad, and run a usb mouse......and it does it all beautifully. Best hub Ive ever purchased...and I have several.

Not had an issue with this at all. Use it with the Plug, not connected to a computer. does great in keeping other items up and running! Very helpful!
