I have a lot of USB connected devices. These really saved me from having to frequently switch out the USB connectors!

With 7 ports, I can multitask and complete several projects quickly. I have it connected to two laptops. The cord length is great and allowed me to hide the cord from where I mounted it to my laptops. Works great!

I've been using it for months, without the slightest hint of any problems. The slots are far enough apart to allow most things to be plugged in next to each other. The cable is good and long, too.

Can use all my peripherals wether for work or play. Excellent price and the plastic is top quality. Love being a le to turn on what I need and turn the rest off. Simple plug and play with no extra software. Works with USB 2 AND 3. The blue LEDs for the ports are helpful to know what's on and off.

I have bought tons of accessories for my laptop and my pc. I can’t go anywhere without this! It allows me to connect everything I need to using just one port on my laptop! The design is nice, the quality is there. I highly recommend this to anyone struggling with small amounts of ports. After years it still works great!

After getting a USB headset, my 4-port USB hub wasn't enough anymore. I swapped that hub out with this hub, and I continue to use it to this day. I noticed that it has trouble with some potentially power-hungry USB devices such as my external HDD, but besides that, it's fine.

There are multiple problems with the Ivetto product. This is disappointing, because I thought the cord length and quality of construction seemed good at first. Unfortunately, I spent two hours confirming there is no doubt the Ivetto product is the cause of multiple problems. I will explain.I use the app called Handbrake a lot for video editing and compression. The first 18 hours went fine. But then there were random disconnects to the Samsung 2.5" SATA III SSD I was using. This is simply not acceptable. Random disconnects like that cannot be tolerated, because it leads to errors with the files and drives.Whenever there are random disconnects like that, I check for errors and data corruption two different ways on a drive. First, I go to "This PC." I then Right-Click the drive I want to scan - which in this instance was drive "g." I then click on "Properties." I then click on "Tools." I then click on "Check" under "Error Checking." This showed there were "Errors" as a result of the random disconnects while being used with Handbrake.The second way I check for errors is to use the Windows feature called "Check Disk" using the "CMD" feature as an "admin." I used this feature on the external SATA III SSD by entering the command as "chkdsk :g /f" with the letter "g" representing the drive that was being scanned. I expected to either see "errors" or "not see errors." But, what occurred because of the 7-port Ivetto product was a NIGHTMARE!When I used "chkdsk :g /f" from "cmd" as an "admin," the entire SATA III SSD disappeared from the PC! When I clicked on "This PC" the drive of "SSD" with drive "g" was no longer visible. I then tried to restart the PC. But the PC froze on the restart. I was forced to manually turn off the power by pushing the "Power" button.I then tried this again. And once again, using "chkdsk :g /f" with "cmd" as an "admin" caused the entire SATA III SSD to completely disappear from "This PC" where all the drives can be seen. Drive "g" simply showed up as having nothing connected to it. I waited a half hour, but nothing came back for drive "g." This time I selected "Shut Down" rather than "Restart." Unfortunately, Windows 10 AGAIN froze. I was AGAIN forced to manually push the "Power" button in order to shut the PC down.I then tried various experiments for trial and error. For example, I turned off the power for the six other inputs. This allowed all the power for the entire device to be used for just the one input. Again, using "chkdsk g: /f" caused the SSD to completely disappear from "This PC" and freeze the PC.I then used several different inputs on the 7-port Ivetto device. This did not solve the problem. Each input I used suffered from the same problem. Each time I ran "chkdsk g: /f" it caused the SATA III SSD to no longer be seen in drive "g" and the computer was no longer able to be Shut Down or Restart.I then tested to see if the SATA III SSD would work with other devices. I tried using this with a 4-port USB 3.0 expansion from Anker. The command of "chkdsk g: /f" successfully worked with the 4-port USB 3.0 expansion from Anker.I then tested to see if the SATA III SSD would work with a USB input directly connected to the PC. When I ran the command of "chkdsk :g /f" the SATA III SSD worked 100% fine with the USB input directly connected to the PC.I then wanted to see what would happen if I tried using a 2.5" HDD while connected to the Ivetto 7-port Device. When I ran the command of "chkdsk g: /f" there were again severe problems. After just a couple seconds, I audibly heard the mechanical 2.5" HDD turn off. This is presumably the same thing that happens to the SSD. I went to "This PC" and saw drive "g" and the HDD were no longer visibly shown in the menu as a device connected to the PC. However, after about ten seconds, the 2.5" HDD returned as a visible device in "This PC." The results for "chkdsk :g /f" said there were no errors. But, this ended up not being correct.I then disconnected the 2.5" HDD from the 7-port the Ivetto device. I connected the 2.5" HDD directly to the PC. I ran "chkdsk :g /f" on the 2.5" HDD. The results showed there were now "9 Errors" that were corrected by Windows. There is no doubt these "9 Errors" occurred when the Ivetto product temporarily shut down the 2.5" mechanical HDD.I then decided to run this command of "chkdsk g: /f" on a 3.5" powered external hard drive. The command of "chkdsk g: /f" successfully worked with the Ivetto device. This strongly suggests the problem with the 7-port Ivetto device is that it does NOT supply enough power to the 2.5" non-powered SSD or the 2.5" non-powered HDD.BOTTOM LINE: I do not recommend the 7-port Ivetto USB device. The Ivetto product had random disconnects with my SATA III 2.5" SSD. The Ivetto product also had severe problems when using Windows Commands such as an external scan using "chkdsk :g /f" in ways that caused the PC to be unable to "Shut Down" or "Restart" at all. The only way the computer could be turned off was manually pushing the "Power" button. "Errors" then appeared on the 2.5" SSD and 2.5" HDD.

Realizing that more and more peripherals require a USB connection, and that always reaching behind my PC to plug and unplug things was getting to be a pain, I finally decided to get a hub. I looked at a variety of models, but most of those I looked at had very short cables to connect them to my computer, which made them as much of a pain to use as reaching behind my system. Then I came across this unit, which has a perfect length cable, not too short to be able to place the hub where I need it, and not too long to have a cable always getting in my way.Unlike a few other reviewers, I have not found the USB ports to be loose at all. Every cable or USB flash drive I have connected to any of the ports has fit snugly with no extra play. I have it connected to a USB 3.0 port, and it gives very acceptable speeds when transferring files. But the feature I really appreciate is the individual switches for each port. Instead of push button switches, which tend to fail, these are solid rocker switches with a nice LED to indicate which ports are active.The hub also transfers more than enough power to drive my two LED strips that are connected to it, and the switches allow me to turn them on or off when I want. It also has no problem with my webcam. So far, it has functioned perfectly and I really could not ask for more from a USB hub.Recommended.

C'est simple, le circuit interne est défectueux, vos disque dur externe ou autre appareil ne fonctionneront tout simplement pas. Je ne pourrais que trop vous recommander de ne PAS acheter ce produit !

I have been looking for something like this for a long time and it seems to do just what I want it for. The individual ports are very helpful in isolating what you do not need.Works well on my mac and very easy to set up and use. Not a bad price at all

Absolutely perfect for what I needed! The length of the cable is double the other USB hub I had and easily reaches from the back ports to the top of my desk for my web cams! There is no interference or interruption in any device plugged into this hub. Going to be buying a second for the hubby!
