Awesome USB 3.0 hub
Easy install and works awesome with Linux

Cheaply made and does not work
In summary, I have to echo the complaints made by other reviewers:1) Cheaply made2) Poorly designed3) Does not work wellTo be specific, the unit cheapness of the unit can be seen in several areas. First off, as others have said, the attachment screws are cheap wood screws not machine threads and screw into smooth plastic holes, cutting the threads into the plastic holes as you screw. CAREFUL NOT TO OVERTIGHTEN as you will strip the plastic out.Second the circuit boards are fully exposed. Better made units enclose the circuit boards in a metal case with shield them from EMF interference and protect them. Saves them a few bucks = cheaply made.Third, the USB 3 cable coming out of the unit is way to short to reach anything inside a tower case – which is the type of case you would have with a 5.25 inch front panel accessory. So I had to buy an extension cable. But beyond that, the cable connector is a cheap piece of S**T and you can’t tell if it is snugged properly into it’s mate. Bad design… and CHEAP.Now, this I knew in advance and should have realized, but the card reader slots are on USB 2.0 and are Soooo SLOOOW. It was about 1/4 the speed I got with an external USB card reader I was trying to replace. So that’s on me. But still, WTF? Why not have all slots go on USB 3? (The replacement I got did have card slots on USB 3).Finally, the icing on the cake was the damn thing didn’t work consistently. Sometimes it would work fine and others it would lose the drive in the middle of copying a file.I know that it’s hard to find a 5.25″ card reader with USB 3.0. What I ended up doing was getting the 3.5″ model from StarTech (35FCREADBU3) and a $5 adapter (BRACKETFDBK) to fit it in the 5.25″ bay. Solid build and works like a champ at full USB 3.0 speeds across the board.Cheers!

Its decent but could be a lot better
I have had this for about 2 years before writing a review. Overall it dose a decent job, I don’t need lighting fast speeds when I am just transferring data over to my phone and back, or plugging in a controller. What I really wanted this for was the TF card slot because I do a lot of 3d printing. My biggest gripe is that the plastic is not 100% flush to the port so there has been multiple times where I go to insert the card at a weird angle and it dose not go into the port but falls into the hub itself and I have to find a way to fish out my card. That annoyance alone would had gotten this a 4 star but where it loses another star is that the TF port seems to be really iffy. Some day I can slot in cards just fine and it reads, other day I have to fiddle with the port to make it work and other days it just dose not read. I say this is nice, but I feel like the only reason this has so many positive reviews is because they are basically the only one on the market. Its reaching a point where I think I’ll just get a type C hub and find something else for the front bay drive.

Me gusto mucho, muy práctico porque agregó muchos usb’s, yo lo conseguí a muy buen precio, por lo que fue una buena compra.(Edición) Trabaja muy bien y sin problemas, reconoce y transfiere datos a mi Poco X3 Pro y al Y9 Prime 2019, puedo conectar ventiladores y memorias y todo bien, la salida que es de carga rápida, me carga como normal, pero esto no es ningún inconveniente ya que no la compre por eso sino por agregar tantos puertos USB aun buen precio, en México las he visto arriba de los 700 u 900 pesos.

Works great as an upgrade for older PC to bring ports to front of tower.
