Before you buy
USB hubs share bandwidth. If you're running high-demand devices simultaneously — two fast SSDs, for example — throughput divides across ports. For single-device use or standard peripherals (keyboard, mouse, flash drive), you won't notice. For high-bandwidth parallel transfers, a powered hub with dedicated lanes is a better choice. The 0.0-star average suggests some buyer variance — read the recent reviews for your specific use case before purchasing.
