I had this in use for several months and used it next to other (USB 2.0) HUBs. The speed difference made me realize that it was time to update the other two and get myself two extra USB 3.0 HUBs. The HUBs y arrrived within 2 weeks after ordering (Netherlands) so; rather fast! Unfortunatly on one of the power supplies the enclosure was open because internally a bit of plastic had broken off. The pcb showed some (poorly done) handsoldering, apparently it has been repeared and after repairing the screw was fastened too tight after which the plastic broke off. But I do not like to used this kind of power supply anyhow as I consider them unsafe and emitting a lot of electrical noise (it had no CE or UL marking and contained no EMI filtering whatsoever). The required supply is just a regular 5V/500mA supply with a 3mm power plug (1mm pin), so easy to replace. But the main thing is the hub and that works fine. One thing though, it is best to have its power supply activated before or at the same time you switch on the PC itself. The HUBs can operate on the power it receives from the PC but connected devices may not be recognized even if you later on activate the hub's power input. Normally I would disconnect a USB device to power it down, but with these hubs you can just toggle the switch and keep the wiring intact. Another plus is that the cable can be detached. This makes routing the cable a bit easier and allows replacement if its get damaged (USB 3.0 cables are more susceptable to damage than USB 2.0 cables, this due to the tighter requirements regarding cable impedances). Conclusion; the hub is great but discard the power supply and get yourself a wall adapter from a local source. Still, good value for money, fast delivery and (the HUB) is of good quality.
