Review on USB Device Server DS-510: USB to Gigabit Ethernet with AC Power Supply by Brent Peterson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Non-plug-n-play for computers and accessories

The computer from which you want to access devices connected to the DS-510 must be running the Silex software. You can follow directions all day and not get where you need to be. You should do a Google search and find a link to the Silex website with the installation files you need. Too bad the instructions are useless. However, once you figure it out, the device is wonderful. I even figured out that I could use an old powered USB hub (an old one doesn't work, another one works) and plug additional flash drives and hard drives into it and they'll all show up!

Pros
  • Quick switch
Cons
  • Long wait
