To connect an external hard drive, wire keyboard, Logitech mouse receiver and laptop cooler usb power, I bought this.Pros,Design is very solid and simpleAdditional power source(adapter) provides putting more than 4 usb-based devices.Reduce power loads on my laptop.Led light indicates what ports are used as a data source or not (e.g., led light of the port for a laptop cooler is not turned on.)Data transfer speed is very close to the original speed when i put the USB to my macbook.ConsPower adapter is little big than what i thought.

Like the compact size, and there\'s on/off button next to each USB so one has the option to turn on only the USB slots one is using; plus each USB slot lights up when powered on so one can see at a glance if Hub slot is on. Has a nice blue glow to each powered USB slot when powered on. If blue lighting is a problem for your situation then this unit is not for you as if light is out the USB will not have power.

The electrical cord is good length and not a stingy shorty type. Has a double sided suction cup pad, in double rows that one can apply a bit of moisture to mini suction cups to anchor unit to your desk surface to maintain it\'s assigned spot. I have mine on it\'s side so the USB cords plugged. The AH430 aluminum hub works very well with my 2012 iMac running OS X 10.9.3 Mavericks.

When both USB 2 & USB 3 devices are plugged into the hub, it will appear in the System Information app as two hubs, one on a \'USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Bus\' with the USB 3 items attached to it, & the other on a \'USB Hi-Speed Bus\' with the USB 2 items attached to that.Blackmagic Disk Speed Test shows that it can deliver USB 3 speeds to USB 3 devices even when both USB 2 & 3 ones are plugged into it. I saw no difference in transfer speeds between plugging a fast USB 3 hard drive into the hub & directly into one of the iMac\'s ports.Since the hub does not have a separate power supply, it is limited to supplying a maximum total of 900 ma (0.9 amps) to all the devices. AUKEY USB Hub 4 Port, AluminiumI like surprises. This USB hub was a surprise.

I have had USB hubs in the past, and while they were all fine and worked just like they were supposed too, this one brought a little more to the game.The Construction:This is where this hub went above and beyond. It is a solid aluminum outer shell, offset with white plastic side panels and usb sockets. The feel is tremendous. It feels solid, really solid. When a device feels this solid, even if it does not work any faster than any other devices, it still jumps up notches in your mind.

I know that Amazon is full of this style of hub, by many manufacturers and if any are up to this quality, then you really have no fears in picking any like this. I can\'t attest to others quality, but this hub, is quality. INSTALLATION: Upon arrival, I went ahead and installed this without reading the short instructions that came with it.

After all, how hard can it be? Luck was with me, as I had a 50/50 chance of getting it right, and did. On a 27\' 5K, it says to use ONLY slot 1 or 4 of the 4 available USB ports. (I don\'t know why.) Also, it has clear guidance for installing it- part way into a USB slot, then gently into the vent slots on the bottom of the display, and finally, seating the USB plug all the way.The instructions also state that, \'This device can only read one memory card at a time.\' THE PRODUCT: The color and finish matches my 27\' 5K Retina PERFECTLY.

This thing looks like an Apple add-on when installed. Because of the way it\'s mounted, it feels VERY solid while inserting thumb drives. This is great.

I detest having to rotate my iMac 27\' to reach the USB ports. I also don\'t like having unwieldy usb hubs laying around. The Sorbent 4-port hub fits perfectly. Snapped on in a sec. To install, I placed the front tabs in their position and then moved the USB plug to the desired position. It is made our of hard plastic. Feels a little cheap.

But everything fits secure. I have used it a few times to make sure it works. Things seem fine. I do use external speakers for my iMac. I did switch over to the internal speakers after installing the USB hub and can not tell any problems there. But again my norm are the external speakers (as well as air play).

I\'ve added a few photos so that. Great card reader and usb port reader! We wanted something up on the desk that would be easily accessible and this is perfect for that! We have it on the computer desk and plugged into the computer. Now whenever we need to plug something in we don’t need to look for a port.

We wanted a card reader so we didn’t need another adapter to plug in cards. I take pictures and it is a lot faster to have something to plug the card into than to plug in the camera and upload the pictures. Simple and easy to use. Ordered from AMAZON with same day shipping option & received it a few hours later.

So far it\'s working as expected. Needed a hub to clone a source flash drive to multiple USB sticks simultaneously and it\'s working flawless so far. Excellent time saver!I can confirm that this updated model does support USB 1.1 & 2.0 without a problem. I briefly connected my WD 4TB external drives to it and they were detected without a problem. Also tested a TRENDnet TU3-S25 external 2.5 hard drive housing & it also worked flawless.Loaded up a 32 GB SANDISK USB 2.0 flash drive to maximum capacity & cloned it to 9 USB SANDISK 2.0 flash drives in about 2 hrs & 30 minutes on an IBM CORE2DUO 2.66 system with 4 GB ram running Windows 10.
