Review on πŸ”Œ Sabrent 4 Port Portable USB 3.0 Hub with Power Switch - Ideal for Ultra Books, MacBook Air, Windows 8 Tablet PC - Black (HB-U3P4) by Ronald Bleimeyer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

seems better when you plug in a device and then turn it on.

This hub is cool, I've had a little trouble loading drivers, seems like it's better if you plug in a device then turn on the hub and wait for the drivers to load and then that plug in the next device and wait for the drivers to load etc etc if you unplug the hub and plug in 4 devices and then turn on the hub you will have trouble loading multiple drivers at once, to the point of timing out. This is the only problem I have with the hub. I use it with a USB AC 1600 Hi-Speed Wireless Internet Adapter, a Seagate 4TB USB 3.0 external hard drive, a USB 3.0 printer/scanner, and a USB keyboard. Everything is connected to a 4-port Sabrent USB 3.0 hub and I was able to scan and print while backing up to an external drive with no difference in speed compared to no backup, so the USB 3.0 speed is amazing. There doesn't appear to be any performance degradation with four devices connected to the hub compared to connecting one device directly to a USB 3.0 port on the computer.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Long time
