    -1 for Orico from me. I have a 4port USB hub from them, it's unable to consistently pick up what i plug in. Maybe about 35% of the time it works. Signal constantly drops for no reason. Putting something new in causes the other devices to drop.

      The VIA VL812 chipset in this model should solve that.

        Looks like the hub Kanasuke has also uses the VL812 controller (see link in his post)

    For that kind of money maybe you could spend a bit more and import a real nice one from the states?

      which most likely is a orico rebadge as they make these for many other companies.. Anker hubs are made by orico.

    I have one of this router

    ASUS RT-AC68U. http://www.mwave.com.au/product/asus-rtac68u-ac1900-concurre…

    If i get this hub and connect multiple hard drives to this HUB, can i access them all in one place using my router? Any one have setup as such?

    Or is this hub only meant to be on computer so that they can be ejected / mounted as and when required?

      If you need that many ports and HDDs I think you need a serious NAS type setup…

      • Perumal on 01/03/2015 - 15:25

        Sure thanks.

    • theraque on 02/03/2015 - 08:18

      Won't work. Routers don't provide an interface that can manage more than one USB HDD at a time. You may be able to if you switch the firmware out to a linux-based distro however like dd-wrt but that's just a guess.

    The power adapter is 12V 3A which means it can give at most 36W. There will also be some power provided from the host computer.

    A USB 3.0 device can draw 4.5W (according to wiki). 13 ports can draw 58.5W. Adding in the charger ports would bring the max power draw up to 75.5W.

    It wont work if all the ports are drawing a lot of power but it would be okay for mice and keyboards and powered external hard drives.

    Also the VL812 is a four port hub, so this device would need four chips inside (since each hub adds 3 extra ports). That means some ports are better than others, the better ones being the ports that are connected to the fewest chips.

    Also want to add that I have had a 7 port USB 3.0 orico for a while now and it has worked well so far.

  • hamwhisperer on 01/03/2015 - 09:23

    I don't know if these are any good? I know that my Anker 7 port USB3 is pretty swish, with a proper quality USB cable and USB port, I was able to run 3 HDD's at actual sustained USB3 speeds.

    A LOT of these don't provide enough power.

    No Paypal…. Deal breaker…

    • Black Hole on 01/03/2015 - 10:43

      The opposite for me.

        You've obviously never had to try and return a defective item then from a dodgy store…
