Cons: Slightly loose mini-usb connector
Pros: 7 Ports with LEDs, 3 ports work without AC Power, strong 2A AC/Adapter Comment:
This USB adapter seems to work really well. The AC adapter is a strong 2A unit, so there should be plenty of power for everything but the most high-draw devices (Note that this still won't charge an iPad).When you plug in ports, they light up an LED so you can tell which ports are working.The 3 ports on the backside of the unit also work without having the AC adapter plugged in if you need to power a few low-draw devices in a pinch, which is a bonus.No real complaints here. The cords are sufficiently long, the build quality seems high, and everything just works. |

Cons: None so far
Pros: It Works. Cheap. 7 ports. Comment:
So far so good. No failures like others have reported. For 14 bucks it's hard to argue. The lights work, the power cable is decent length. All ports functional. What else can I say, it works. |

Cons: 1) Ports need to be reset when devices are removed by disconnecting the hub from the computer. 2) My flash card reader was not recognized at end of daisy chain from my monitor USB ports connected to hub.
Pros: Relatively inexpensive. Nice matte black finish. Blue LEDs indicate active ports. Powered hub with a slim 5v ac adapter. Nice packaging. Comment:
Running Win 7 64-bit. Replacing an older no-name 7 port USB hub that went flaky with the MSI, and assumed the brand name product would perform well but was sadly disappointed. Ports get stuck when you remove a device. However the most serious problem is that it does seem to handle daisy chaining well - a flash card reader plugged into my Dell monitor which in turn was plugged into the hub was not recognized at all. I returned it, and got the D-Link DUB-H7 instead and am happy again. Great thing that NCIX handles returns very well.Bottom Line: I want to rate this as 1 star, but my invoice from pickup purchase does not seem have an OrderID on it. |

Cons:
is a bit finicky
Pros: inexpensive, small, light and smart looking Comment:
This a very good low cost solution for an AC powered hub. I find that sometimes it has to be restarted to find the peripheral, or after my mac wakes from sleep. However otherwise it is very good. |

Cons:
too much power?
Pros: Small, looks good. lots of power? Comment:
It worked fine in one computer in the first days, then I plugged it into a motherboard (not in a case, I haven't used it for a while) and sometimes it would start sometimes it wouldn't. The computer. I thought maybe the power supply. While the MSI unit was plugged in, I connected a new power supply to the board and was a bit surprised that the blue light and fan came on in the power supply and the fan for the cpu. Considering the PS was not plugged into the wall, the only source of power is through the MSI unit. I don't know if this is good for the board or not just shearing my experience.I wanted to put 2 stars but what is an OrderID?!?!? |

non responsive
Pros: Compact, small, LED lights Comment:
at first i was extremely pleased with this USB HUB. with the blue LED lights indicating which ports are in use, the compact size, AC power for the usb ports, 7 usb ports in total, its was a great USB HUB. now its just horrible. never recognizes peripherals connected to it. blue LED lights are not working any more. i am just not happy with it. |

Cons:
More than likely the bandwidth will be a bit slow for some things that will be plugged in, but no worries.
Pros: Great little usb device expansion. Supports Multimedia (Printers,keyboards,mice,controllers,scanners and external disk trays) All ports are also powered! Wow is it Small. Comment:
Got this for the GF's Laptop. Only has 3 USB 2.0 ports which makes expandable products from the USB interface annoying as she has 5 or 6 to plug in at times. |

Cons:
None
Pros: Cheap Price, 7 USB Ports, External Powered Hub, Great Brand Comment:
I didnt realize how many usb devices I had this does the job. 7 USB ports. It powers all my devices without any issue. Trust MSI for good products. Really thin and compact. Lights to show which ones are in use. |
While the lights are nice to show if USB devices are properly connected, they're rather on the bright side. Other than that, this thing has tons of ports, is powered, and easy on the wallet.
