I have a 2013 Mac Pro, which has only USB 2.0 inputs. This hub will allow you to connect one USB 3.0 external drive and transfer data. I cant comment on speed but if you have newer external drives this device will connect. Read more

It would not work on C port from usb. I had to buy an adapter. Now it works perfect. I’d like to have added a video monitor adapter on it. I had to use my old usb devise so that I could use this to the laptop and separate monitor. It seems to work well to hook everything else up Read more

The Sentank USB hub has several different kinds of USB ports. I have some older equipment and needed USB 2.0 and 3.0. I like the switches that allow me to easily turn ports on and off. I doesn't take up a lot of space on my desk either. Read more

Doesn't work with my usb (bluetooth dongle) headset, but work with everything else. Read more

Infinite power! Ok but seriously. I needed a LOT of of USB power and power+data options and a problem I discovered was that way too many hubs only supplied a measly total amps. If I have a device that needs 2A (say a raspberry pi) and I need to power 5 of them, a 10-port hub with an adapter that maxes at 4A won't do much. This is the number one problem I've found with hub devices. While this one isn't the best, the power adapter will put out 60+W (which is 12.5A at 5v). Won't be power farming a bunch of phones or laptops but for li-ion charger bays, ear buds, wireless charging docks it's got plenty of power. Nice form factor for 14 slots. I wish it turned off individual ports instead of rows of 2 but what can you do. I use this to transfer data off portable drives and phones and hold a bunch of wireless/bluetooth receivers (headset, 2 keyboard, 2 mice, 1 kbm combo, dongle for DS/3 controllers), charge 2 wireless mice, and two aftermarket battery chargers for the puck battery in the Logitech 501 mouse, and never had any issues. Tucks away nicely into the corner. Another pro (personal opinion) the power brick isn't built into the plug meaning it won't block receptacles on a power strip. In a world of ever more USB power delivery needs, I find more and more I prefer hubs that have the convertor along the cable instead of in the plug (best option is in the hub). Very solid build quality. Buttons feel quality. Ports are a smooth fit (ever notice cheap ones sometimes feel gritty, it's because the stamped sheet metal of the port has a poor finish) and secure retention. If I could change one thing I wish it had a USB-c port instead of a USB B 3.0. The computer end could remain an USB A but long USB 3.0 with a right angle connector are pretty hard to find (usually the long ones are all 2.0 or you can't find the correct orientation). I ended up having to run a short 1.5' cable with the right angle connection I needed to an A male to A female extension. Read more

I have used the regular bar hubs but the don’t stay put and the organization is sloppy. This has some weight to it and stays in place better and instead of plugging your cables side ways you’re able to plug it in on the top. A strangely convenient option that I hadn’t noticed I missed. It’s makes it easier to manage your computer’s portables and has 4 charging ports with being for c cables. I really liked it this way better than the old sideways hubs, yes it’s a bit pricey, but it’s worth in and small secret I got mine on a Black Friday sale. Read more
