36W 7 Port USB 3.0 Hub with Individual Power Switches and LEDs Includes 36W 12V/3A Power Adapter (HB-BUP7)

Sabrent 36W 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub I use this for writing backup files from my desktop computer to a flash drive every night. All 7 of the ports work. I wrote a script to compare the speed of file transfer between ports on this hub and the native USB 3.0 ports on the front of the computer. It's a very fast computer with an ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard, and those native ports are connected directly to that motherboard. The file source was an internal RAM disk, infinitely fast compared to USB. There was no difference in speed between the ports, whether the destination flash drive was a fast one or a slow one. Once a month I write five flash drives at once, and I expect this hub to handle that perfectly. If it doesn't, I will update this report. I don't need 36 watts or individual port switches, but maybe some day? OOPS - Now it's not so good. I make most of my flash drives bootable, using Macrium Reflect, so the images on the drives can be restored easily. But the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard does not find those flash drives. As if they are not connected at all. The USB cable length doesn't matter, nor does the port that I use on the 7-port Sabrent hub, nor does the brand or type of flash drive. Tried 'em all. And all of the flash drives will boot up just fine when plugged in directly to the front of computer, where a short cable within the computer connects to the mobo. This not a huge problem, because I would use a front or back connection if I really needed to restore a drive. It's more of an inconvenience, because it makes it a little harder to test a flash drive. I need to get to Sabrent and see what they have to say. SERIOUS UPDATE: The review changes from 5 stars to 1 star (preferably zero). Elated and angry. Elated because I finally discovered why my computer was exhibiting so many sudden "Black Screen of Death" reboots. Angry because the cause was this Sabrent 7-Port USB Hub which was doing nothing when the reboots occurred. The reboots seemed to be random, so I had no idea what might cause them and spent good money on three (very nice) Tripp-Lite surge suppressors. I was already using a UPS for the computer itself. More important, I spent hours upon hours trying to find the problem, never imagining that it could be a device that was plugged in but not even in use when the reboots happened. I wrote scripts, attempting to repeatedly exercise non-microsoft software (VeraCrypt, 7-Zip, ImDisk) to produce the error reliably, to no avail. I kept a log of the black screens, and that did help. Finally my little brain connected the start of the black screens to the time that I purchased the Sabrent 7-Port USB Hub. Since disconnecting that, no such reboots have occurred. I do need a hub during certain procedures, but the replacement ikuai 11-Port hub has not caused reboot problems. It has other problems, and it's going back, but that's a separate review. The Sabrent hub was unquestionably the cause. However, in my opinion, the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero motherboard is also partly at fault, because it should be designed well enough to prevent a USB-connected device from bringing down the computer. 2024 03 05 Another update. Maybe the Sabrent isn't the problem after all. It's definitely not "unquestionably" the cause. I replaced it with a new RSHTech 7-port USB hub, and the black-screen reboots continue. I'm stumped right now, actually starting to suspect my UPS of spikes or momentary cutouts. Anyway I think the Sabrent is OK.

The PERFECT USB3 Switched & Powered 7-port Hub!!! The "Sabrent HB-BUP7 USB 3.0 7-Port Hub with Individual Power Switches, LEDs & 36W Power Adapter" is the answer to my 3-year search for a switched & powered hub that actually works properly with Windows 10 computers! I tried all the others, cheap & expensive, and they all failed to function properly with external hard drives. But THIS Sabrent hub finally allows me to turn my external drives on and off reliably without the constant plugging & unplugging of before. My hard drives are all 2.5" USB 3 port-powered, drawing their power from the hub's ports. This is the ONLY hub that provides stable, adequate power to its ports with multiple connected hard drives so they don't drop their connections in the midst of a large data transfer or corrupt the data being transferred between drives. NO OTHER HUB HAS EVER BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT REGARDLESS OF COST! I was going to buy the Sabrent 10-port version of this hub but I ended up buying the HB-BUP7 7-port hubs and daisy-chained them (14 usable ports) because they come with a nice, compact power adapter while the 10-port version uses the big, bulky Euro-style power brick with two cords that I don't like. Although Sabrent hubs have never been my favorites in the past because they were flakey in function when connecting external hard drives as described above, THIS ONE IS A WINNER! If you want rock-solid performance and data reliability, BUY THIS "HB-BUP7" HUB! UPDATE: November, 2019 I've been using these hubs now for more than six months to connect multiple portable and external USB 3 hard drives, thumb drives, DVD burners, you name it and their operation is absolutely FLAWLESS. They are powered on 24/7 and never have a glitch or a failed data transfer of any kind.

Works good just make shore it can handle the power needed cause i use it for rtl sdr and after like 3 of them there isnt enough power to run and more than that or my hdmi reciever

Great and small USB Hub. I'm a gamer, and I run a hi-end laptop to keep up with the releasing games. Most laptops nowadays only come with a couple of USB ports, so having a great USB Hub can make all the difference. This one DOES make all the difference! It's a fully powered hub that can run anything you put on it. From memory sticks to full HOTAS flight controllers, it will power and make sure you have what you need. Overall a great addition to your accessories.

fonctionne parfaitement

(Bewertung von einem ungekauften und real existierenden Käufer/Benutzer) Der SABRENT USB Hub aktiv 3.2x1 mit insgesamt 7 Ports funktioniert bei mir einwandfrei. Da ich ab und an Homerecording betreibe und nebenbei auch gerne Gamer bin, benötige ich schon mal mehr Steckplätze für die Verse Geräte. Der Hub kommt da wie gerufen und er ist bei mir voll belegt, seit einigen Tagen im Einsatz. Bisher funktioniert alles Einwandfrei, es wird auch nichts heiß und es gibt keinerlei Kompatibilitätsprobleme mit meinem Windows 11 PC. Wenn man etwas bemängeln müsste, dann vielleicht das eher kurze USB Kabel, welches vom Hub zum Rechner führt und eventuell das relativ große Netzteil, was je nach Steckerleiste problematisch werden kann. Ansonsten bin ich top zufrieden und ich kann das Teil definitiv weiterempfehlen.

Ho acquistato questo hub USB principalmente per alimentare alcune strisce LED e delle lampade USB nella mia postazione. Le 7 porte disponibili sono molto comode, soprattutto perché ognuna è dotata di un interruttore ON/OFF indipendente con indicatore LED. Questo mi permette di accendere e spegnere le luci senza dover scollegare fisicamente i cavi ogni volta: una comodità enorme, soprattutto se si vuole mantenere ordine sulla scrivania. Il trasferimento dati non è stata la mia priorità in questo caso, ma ho fatto qualche test e la velocità con USB 3.2 è davvero ottima. Nessun problema di connessione o di riconoscimento dei dispositivi, funziona perfettamente fin da subito. Anche la compatibilità è eccellente: ho provato anche a collegare un paio di altri accessori (chiavette USB e una tastiera) e tutto ha funzionato senza intoppi. Il cavo di alimentazione esterna incluso è fondamentale: garantisce la potenza necessaria anche per dispositivi che consumano di più, come le luci che sto usando. In sintesi, un prodotto davvero valido, pratico e funzionale. Se avete bisogno di un hub per alimentare o gestire più periferiche USB contemporaneamente, è un acquisto consigliatissimo.

It does what a powered usb hub is supposed to do. Quality is very good.
