Review on πŸ”Œ UCEC 5.25 Inch Front Panel USB Hub with USB 3.0 & 2.0, HD Audio & Microphone Ports for Desktop - 20 Pin Connector & 2ft Cable Included by Jason Vigen

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Has worked great for several months. Then problems.

Fits and looks great on the front of a newly built PC. That's the good part. However, you will find that the supplied cables are too short to connect to the connectors if it is a standard ATX MB size. Had to buy longer cables to connect this thing when needed. It worked fine for a while, but then I started getting USB connection errors. Panel 4 has a USB port, so I switched to another one and then everything was fine. One by one, the other ports started giving the same errors. Right now all USB 2 ports except one have these connection errors and I'm in the process of replacing the panel. Problem? obviously substandard USB connectors used in the manufacture of the panel. Advice? Don't even think about buying faceplates from this panel manufacturer. They don't seem to understand how to make quality products.

Pros
  • Attractive looks
Cons
  • Available in white only
