Input: I bought this usb 3.0 hub because I wanted to transfer a lot of data from 2 other hard drives (1 of them a 3.0 hdd) to one bigger usb 3.0 hard drive quicker than 2.0 speeds (my laptop only having one 3.0 port). I thought this hub would be a great deal, being one of the cheapest 3.0 hubs on Amazon and with such a high rating. Knowing already that this hub is bus powered, I went ahead with purchasing it anyway because of the 3 hard drives I was going to plug in, only one was a portable drive that needed usb power, and didn't expect any problems.<br /><br />The only problem I encountered was while using it was when transferring large amounts of data from a portable external drive to a desktop external drive. The transfer speed would start out normally for 3.0 hard drives but then would drop down to 10Mbps, appear to pause for a minute, and repeat for as long as the transfer went on. I thought it was possibly because the hub couldn't handle powering a portable drive while maintaining 3.0 speed between 2 drives on the same hub. Unplugging and transferring with one drive in the 3.0 port and the other on a 2.0 port turned out to be faster than on the hub.<br /><br />If you plan on using even ONE portable drive on this hub, I suggest saving your money and getting a 2.0 hub or buying a 3.0 hub with external power. If everything you plan to plug in to this hub has its own external power source or is a flash drive, go ahead, this hub is perfect for you. As for me, I'm probably going to buy myself an externally powered hub..
