Review on Sabrent 4-Port USB 2.0 Hub - Adjustable 90°/180° Degree Rotatable Design (HB-UMN4) by Loren Rindfleisch

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Compact and unobtrusive, works great on laptops, HTPCs, TV boxes, etc.

I have purchased several of these units and we use them on our laptops, home theaters, PC/TV boxes, etc. . They're great for any device that wants more USB ports. I like that you can rotate the ports to any position. I also really like that this USB hub is unobtrusive as it sits directly across from the USB port on your device it is plugged into and doesn't take up any desk space. I especially didn't want another boxed device sitting on top of my entertainment center, taking up a lot of space and collecting a lot of dust. I also didn't want the USB port hanging on my laptop. IMPORTANT NOTE. Если вы используете один из них для подключения жестких дисков USB к вашему устройству (как мы делаем с нашими ПК/ТВ-боксами для домашнего кинотеатра), имейте в виду, что ваше устройство будет назначать новые буквы USB-портов новым USB-портам, которые They have. just added with this hub. So if you've previously pathed media on an attached USB hard drive (using Kodi or other media player software) and then plugged that same hard drive into one of those new ports on that USB hub, you'll likely need to go back and switch the path of the added media to the letter of the new USB port so that Kodi (or any other media center software you may be using) can find your media in the new location.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Low maintainability
