    Reliable USB3 powered hubs?


    Greetings. I have purchased and used a few usb3 hubs. All have failed over time. Even the powered ones. Anyone have recommendations for ones that are reliable that will support 5 or more usb drives/sticks ? thx.

    SIIG makes industrial grade USB3 hubs and I've yet to have any problem with them, even in a factory workplace environment. Price comes with it though, so hope you're ready to shell out at least 80$ for those.

    Been awhile since I have been in the field.
    The time and cost of replacing failed parts justify this.
    Thank you for this info.
