🖥️ StarTech.com Industrial USB Expansion Hub with ESD Protection - TAA Compliant - 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub - Metal Mountable USB Hub (ST4300USBM), Black Review

Out of at least 5 USB 3.0 hubs I've tested, this is the only one that doesn't have any issues. PROS: - durable, all-metal construction - enough juice to power all 4 ports - ultra-stable USB 3.0 channel (devices won't turn off) CONS: - expensive. or not providing enough juice for your devices, that's the point. I've been using it for 9 months now, no complaints.

I have 3 of these - one has been running for over a year - solid and reliable - one is stretched over the end of a 3m USB cable and works great with an external drive array.

Below basically says that if you think…

I always got the last device not recognized on my USB serial bus controllers. Their support team contacted me several times to help with the installation. I was impressed. Although I never contacted her. The next day I unplugged the device, restarted the computer and then, lo and behold, it worked. I do not know what happened. I've tried every USB on my computer before…

Pros: It's well built and has a simple and efficient mounting solution. Four USB 3.0 ports provide enough power to charge my iPad and iPhone 5, and these Apple devices seem to be the most demanding I've found. The USB ports provide a snug fit for all my USB cables. Cons - I've had it for a little over a year and it has stopped working properly. When I plug in my phone, the computer recognizes it, but the phone just charges and doesn't acknowledge that it's charging. My Kindle charges fine but…
