> 3 dayDoes everything you would want except last - died in 6 months. Theres a short somewhere - my MacBook complains about overcurrent when the power supply of the hub is plugged in. So - this is junk.

> 3 dayExcellent quality. As it is powered, plugged into the wall it provides the necessary voltage to run all 4 ports with no issues. Excelllent addition to my gaming set up for external hard drives and charging ports.

> 3 dayI dont know about long-term durability as Ive had this USB hub only a week or so, but so far it does exactly what I want. I like that I can turn devices off by using the push buttons rather than unplugging them and the leds made me realize that my laptop was supplying power to devices even when it was off and not plugged in and the usb hub was unplugged. So I do need to unplug the usb hub after powering off the computer to prevent battery drain.

> 3 dayThis powered USB hub does exactly what the description says it should. Each port turns on or off via a lighted button next to the port. Seems to be sturdy construction. Would be better with a designated charging port but otherwise it meets my requirements quite well.

Greater than one weekIf using something that truly needs USB 3.0 speeds. Then look elsewhere... I was using for 2 VR sensors. Seems to not be able to feed enough power for them anymore. Worked for 3 months or so. Thing gets SUPER buggy after that.

> 3 dayWith the limited usb support for single board computers like the Raspberry Pi 3 or 4 This device really comes in handy. Having it powered makes it so i can run multiple external hard drives with out issues. The pi alone can handle that. But then you take up valued usb ports. Especially usb3 ports which the pi only has 2. Plus depending on were you place your pi having a usb hub makes plugging in flash drives peripherals and so on much easier.

Greater than one weekVery stylish USB 3.0 hub. The blue lights are cool looking and I like the individual power buttons. It works well.

> 3 dayI used this hub for a couple of days on a desktop Windows PC to connect 2 external HDDs (WD). My routine is to put the machine in hibernation when I go to sleep and wake it up next morning. When waking up from hibernation, the disks were disconnected. I found out that only after unplugging the hub from the computer USB3 port and plugging it back the disks connection was restored. However, the OS put out a scary warning about lost data (a write to the NTFS MFT). It is the hubs problem, as everything wakes up alright when plugged directly to the computer USB3 ports. Problem can be serious with disks, as hibernation doesnt necessarily flush delayed-write buffers and, if the HDD is disconnected without completing these, this can corrupt the file system. This, eventually, WILL happen. That is bad news... especially with large HDDs (mine are 10TB). If you insist on using this hub, beware: unmount the drive (Safely Remove Hardware) before hibernating. For me this is a no-go because of my work habits: I definitely insist on leaving the HDDs plugged and working. This is precisely why I hibernate the PC. So that I am returning the hub. Unfortunately, every single hub I see online has some significant number of 1-star reviews...
