Review on πŸ”Œ Enhanced StarTech.com 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub - USB-C Powered USB 3.1 Gen 1 Hub - USB-C to USB-C and USB-A Adapter - USB-C Port Expander (Model: HB30C3A1CFB) by Andrew Carrao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Unreliable - don't recommend

Connects to the USB-C port on my NUC and provides passthrough to the StarTech 2 x 2.5" chassis; he was totally unreliable. You never know if the hard drives in the case will catch fire. When the case is connected directly to the NUC, it boots up like a charm and continues to work. Similar unreliable performance with StarTech 2 x 3.5" chassis, but not sure if this is also due to loss of all data on the two 3.5" drives in this chassis (which were thrown in the trash) . Regardless, don't return this to the Hub, it also goes in the trash can.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Pretty ok
