🔌 7-Port USB Data Hub Splitter with 3.0 Power, Smart Charging Port, On/Off Switches, and 5V/4A Power Adapter – Ideal USB Extension for MacBook, Mac Pro/Mini and More Review

This hub is my third USB 3.0 hub from Atolla. It has enough power for all my devices, it has a charging port but most importantly you can turn on/off any of the USB ports. My computer stays on overnight for cloud backups, and some of the USB devices I use don't have a power button. So I use an on/off switch for each port to turn them off. Atolla USB 3 hubs have proven to be fast and reliable.

Just bought this USB extender. Bye; Small power buttons that are pressed do not respond very well. Any port that is blue will remain lit regardless of the power button. We will probably send this junk back to the seller. Board and reengineering again and again. I will be adding a review today - July 24, 2019. I just received an email from the seller's staff. Goes against her orders; Staff advise NOT to use data ports to charge devices just yet; The instructions state that you CAN use the data…

This hub was not "plug and play". I'm running the latest updated version of Win10 on a gaming PC and had to ask Windows to run an update scan to find the drivers needed to run this hub. The on/off buttons for each port are handy and it worked with flash drives, although the small transfers I made seemed to be moving at USB 2 speeds (I used 16GB USB 3 drives). While the flash drives worked, I bought them for a rarely used USB 3.0 external hard drive, and plugging just a 2TB drive (I've tried…

2 hours after I received this 7 port model I asked Revain to return it. I could live with a dead port #5, but the only reason I bought it is for the P&P convenience on the back of my desktop. 3. Hub with varying performance, but all my portable drives randomly freeze the USB stick. Of course, any drive will work fine on any of the six 3.1 ports on the back. My Asrock motherboard is a new 2700x gaming build. However, the same issues occur on my old Clevo laptop and are not recognized on my…

Judging by the picture it's bigger than it actually is, which I think is a good thing. I plugged it into a USB 3.1 port and plugged in a power brick, which took up a lot of space in my power strip. I would have preferred a laptop-style power supply with a brick in the middle, but it is, and I don't. I don't think it was worth taking the star off. Remember that you need this space. I popped in a couple of USB sticks and they were recognized straight away and worked fine, when I got to my 256GB…

I connected a 7 USB 3.0 port to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port I was able to connect two WD Passports, one 2TB and the other 4TB. I migrated a 100GB mixed fileset from 2TB to 4TB. While this transfer was at USB 3.0/HDD speeds, I also had a Samsung 850 Pro 1TB in an external HDE Clear USB 3.0 Gen 1 enclosure with a full CrystalDiskMark6 benchmark running. No hiccups at all. The test was as expected, High 400 Read and Low 400 Write. I have no idea how long this will take, looks like it will go well with…

I ended up buying this but I bought it with questions that none of the other reviews seemed to answer so here are my unanswered questions answered. Do you need to use this with a plug? You can't just plug it into your computer and your computer can power it. However, if like me you have a portable monitor, you may need to plug it in for extra power. OR if you have a gaming system that requires an external battery like the Wii U, you can use this to provide enough power for use on your Wii U…
