Wow! I didnt realize how bad my USB speeds were until I bought this updated hub from RSHTECH. The speed comparisons are below and in the photo. I used the same disk drive for testing using Blackmagic Disk test on my iMac. The photo shows both new and old USB hubs. I like the fact that its smaller with incredibly improved speeds. Each USB port can be individually enabled/disabled. Highly recommend this for a reasonably (low priced) upgrade. A really awesome 7 port USB Hub. NEW USB 3.0 Speeds: Write: 175.7 MB/s Read: 178.6 MB/s OLD USB hub: Write: 39.2 MB/s Read: 39.9 MB/s

First, this USB hub looks nice sitting on my desk. It has no overly flashy branding and the gloss black upper section is a fine complement to the matte black lower section. But besides looking nice it functions extremely well with full USB 3.0 data transfer speeds. But what I needed it for was the ability to hard disconnect hard drives, microphones, cameras, and so on with the press of a button. All those things vampire power while they are plugged in, but not when they are hard disconnected and this hub makes that easy to do. The buttons are soft touch in that they give no feedback when pressed other than the very bright blue LED turning on or off. Which suits me because tactile feedback clicks are not something every device needs anyway. The hub is optionally powered by a wall wart so that more power hungry devices can be used with it, but if you have any concerns about power, be sure to unplug it when you dont need it. Its idle current draw is not very much, but when you add together all the idle current draw sources in your home, it can be a surprising amount added to your power bill each month. Its a great hub. It looks great, it is optionally powered, it transfers data fast, and it allows hard disconnects of devices with the touch of a button. I am very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone who needs a few more USB 3.0 ports.

This is a compact powered USB hub, each connection has its own power button. The connections are firm and stable, no wobbling of connections. Quite reasonably priced. This is truly one of the best ones I have seen in over 20 years as an IT professional.

This does everything they claim. The only nitpicks I have are 1) the name of the company could be smaller and on the bottom. 2) the connector piece of the adapter is hard plastic. If youre using the adapter and the port next to it is being used, it will put some pressure on it. Of course, most likely, you can plug whatever is next to it into this hub, but if youre using all of the ports on your computer, its something to keep in mind. Will update review if anything changes.

This is a solid, very fast USB hub that boasts USB-C speeds (I transferred a 1GB file in ~10secs) and has the convenience of having a built in usb-C to usb-A cord. It is powerful enough to charge my ipad (albeit slower than a direct ipad charger as youd expect). Each USB port has its own switch and LED light; the light blinks when data is being accessed which many may find useful to ensure no data is being transferred when unplugging a device; for me the flashing blue light was obnoxious as I had my mouse and keyboards plugged in so were constantly blinking. Overall, I would recommend this for anyone with need of multiple USB ports. Again, the built in usb-c to usb-a 3.0 is super helpful. (note there is no SD card reader, attached photo is for size comparison).

The Powered USB Hub ABC is a great gadget for those with multiple electronic devices. It provides ample ports to charge and connect different devices at once, making it convenient and efficient. However, I have noticed that if I leave it plugged in for an extended period of time, it tends to stop working and requires me to unplug it and plug it back in. Its a minor inconvenience, but its something to keep in mind. Overall, I think its a useful gadget to have on hand.

Overall, a nice 7-port USB hub. Very happy with this product and the aluminum sides feels similar to some more expensive USB 3.0 hubs I purchased previously. Works fine out of the box and sits nicely on the desk. The transfer speed was good, as expected, and provides 15 Watts total spread out over the ports, so it should charge your devices effectively if you need that. The ports have a nice fit and the individual switches and indicator LEDs function properly. Would have no problem recommending this hub to a co-worker, friend or relative looking for a port with switches. The AC power supply cord runs 4 feet long, while the included USB cable that runs to your PC is 38 inches long. Will be using this mainly to plug in my array of flight simulator controllers, switches, panels, throttles, pedals, yoke, and so far it suits the level of connectivity and the option to turn each component on or off. The individual switches make this product a desirable choice.

This hub will allow me to connect 7 more USB drives to a computer running Ubuntu Desktop 22.04. Ive connected three to it for now, all NVMes in USB enclosures, running in a software RAID0 configuration. The package comes with a data cable with both USB-C/A, which turned out to be very handy as this computer had already run out of USB-A ports, but still had a USB-C available.

If I had my druthers, I would always work on a mini-tower computer with large screens. Its my preference. A full sized mechanical keyboard and a high definition mouse. And I like my toys/tools. My USB drives, external Hard drives and external SSDs for portable storage. Add the webcam, a necessity today and label printers for convenience. What do these all have in common? USB ports. So I like to have a USB switch (or hub) on the desktop. Easily accessible and convenient. But what most of those devices also have in common is that they draw their power from the USB port theyre plug into. So I like my USB switch to have its own power supply. My last USB switch was several years old and it died (No funeral it wanted to be recycled.) I saw this on Amazon and it was the perfect replacement. 7 ports, each can be switched on or off and a 3A power supply. More than enough to power my USB devices that dont have their own power. It has a simple clean layout and its ports are all USB 3.0. A note, if you get one be sure to plug it into a USB 3.0 port on your computer (The USB port should be blue.) If you plug it into a USB 2.0 port (Black port) then the speed of this switch or any faster switch will be limited the the speed of USB 2.0. I know thats an obvious thing but it never hurts to be reminded. The switch takes no time to install, needs no drivers only an available USB 3.0 or better port on your computer and an electric outlet. The computer will recognize it automatically.

This is a perfect gadget to connect up to 7 USB devices to your laptop. It works great with no reduction in performance. I love it! I can have external hard drives, printer, phone, etc all connected at once. Prior to that I would have to unplug one to plug in another. I recommend this if you are running more than one device at the same time.
