Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Would this be able to handle offloading RAW footage to multiple drives? Bought the one that busses power and it was of no use.

A: This model has its own power adapter, so you should see better results.

Q: 2. Has compatibility with MacOS Monterey been confirmed?

A: As per the manufacturer, this Transcend 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub will work with Mac OS X 10.2.8 or later.

Q: 3. Will it work using a card reader to import photos?

A: Yes. I've plugged a few different kinds of USB 3 card readers into it. I haven't verified it through measurement, but it seems to be operating at the same USB3 speed as my iMac.

Q: 4. I need a 6' - 10' cable to connect this to my Mac Pro 2013 USB 3.0 port. What exact cable spec am I looking for?

A: The Sabrent 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub B&H # SAHBBUP7 has a USB 3.0 Type B connection. You would need a cable like the Pearstone USB 3.0 Type A Male to Type B Male Cable - 6' B&H # PEUSB3AB6.

Q: 5. How long is the adapter cable?

A: I'd say maybe 12 inches.

Q: 6. how long is the usb cable?

A: 14 inches.

Q: 7. Can I use this as a passive hub plugged into the computer but with its power adapter NOT plugged in?

A: You need to have the power supply plugged in. That is the only way it will work.

Q: 8. Hello, Does this device handle both 110 and 220 Voltage? Thank You.

A: For best results, the Sabrent 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub should be used with a voltage converter.

Q: 9. Can I power this hub using a USB power bank?

A: Yes, but not with full functionality. For instance, it will power a keyboard and mouse but not an external storage drive. It works great on AC power no matter what is plugged in but you will get limited function from USB power.

Q: 10. If I plug this into a USB 2.0 port on laptop, will it safely provide full required power to a USB 3.0 device using the AC adapter, while still allowing the device to communicate/sync/etc (at USB 2.0 speed) with the laptop?

A: Yes. The hub will work just fine with your USB 2.0 notebook and USB 3.0 device. There also would not be any issue with the power.

Adds USB ports to a port-challenged laptop...works well. 5

Works as advertised. Very small. Be sure to connect portable hard drive to the powered USB 3.0 port on the end (the one with the lightning bolt symbol). Highly recommended. 5

I needed a powered port to run several USB portable hard drives. This one does the job. I can run 2 standard and one high speed portable drive off one USB laptop port when needed. I just wish I didn't need it...I wish laptops had the ports we want instead of the ports the manufactures thing we want... #sweepstakes 5

Fast and great build qualty. i love the feature that it can be powered externally. This really improves transfer rates with mechanical HDD drives. I also use is to an OTG cable connected to my USB3 android phone (Galaxy Note 3) to copy and paste data between USB drives. Transfer rates are about 15MB/sec is copying between usb ports directly and about double of that when copying directly to the phone. This is a great alternative for those who want to backup photos on he fly while travelling without having to hold a laptop or buying expensive gear like the Nexto. 5
