Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Two wire power connector that you can hook in to more or less any dc power system. Mounted it to my desk and plugged in several peripherals, webcam, network adapter, wireless keyboard/mouse dongle.

All else works flawlessly. My experience with startech is stellar. I usually steer for startech whenever it is available - have done so for quite a few years without disappointment.

It does its job well and is solidly built. If you don't mind it looking industrial, and want something that just works, and works, this one fits the bill.

The enclosure seems rugged and was easy to mount. Easy to mount with several mounting methods available.

Never a disconnect or slowdown of speed writing to drives. I have to use docks for forensic applications sometimes. With regular docks, the hdd's get hot enough to fry an egg.



Cons

Nothing connects thru it. Stopped operating using it for a 2nd time. Ports (2 a each) = 4 ports—not 2 ports.

Evidently, all extra staff is included in price.

It is really nice to have a metal-encased usb3 hub that accepts a wide range of voltages for powering usb devices!


Have purchased quite a few startech products and have always been happy with the purchase.


I was looking for a 12vdc usb hub for a boat application.


0 industrial 4 port hub (st4300usbm) and a vantec nexstar hdd dock.
