Digital camera reviews of Cables To Go 7 Port USB 2.0 Hub
Digital camera Review: A great value in a USB 2.0 hub.
Summary: 5 Stars
Great price-to-performance ratio. I have mine connected to a Mac Pro, feeding 4 USB peripherals, with no performance issues.
Well-made, and looks like it will last a long time.
Digital camera Review: A little wonky but otherwise great
Summary: 4 Stars
A good value, saves space, the only downside is a weird bug:
I have a laptop I carry between home and work. If I plug the hub into the laptop before powering up AND I am returning from hibernation instead of doing a normal boot, Vista will lock up early. So long as I wait to plug the hub in after I get to the desktop, everything is fine-- all of my devices function normally.
Digital camera Review: A nice little 7 port USB hub
Summary: 4 Stars
This hub meets my needs. I read the criticisms in other reviews and I see the same things. But, they are easily solved by the suggestions given in some of the reviews:
1. The unit slides freely in the supplied bracket. The easy solution is to put a piece of double sided tape (the thick, spongy kind) on the bottom of the bracket, but leave the film on the top sticky side. Then slide the unit into the bracket. It is nice and snug but can still be slid out if needed. I'm surprised the manufacturer hasn't figured this out!
2. The power light is extremely bright. If this bothers you put a piece of tape over it. It's bright enough that you should still see some light through the tape.
Other wise this product has worked great. It's compact, has ports on the front and back which means you can put your printers, scanners, etc... on the back and your iPods, cameras, etc.. on the front. Everything I've tried on it works.
Digital camera Review: A piece of junk

It worked great for about two days, then windows would no longer recognize it. Tried it on three different computers and it failed on all three.Digital camera Review: A thing of beauty
Summary: 5 Stars
This little attractive 7-port USB hub is just the right thing for connecting all the modern gadgets and disk drives to your computer. We have all 7 ports filled with cameras, iPods, disk drives of all kinds, and a memory card reader. It sure beats plugging and unplugging to connect these to our Macintosh, which has 5 USB ports of its own. This hub is powered and just fits the bill for expanding. It is low and small and attractive on our desk. Very nice accessory.
