The USB 3.0 7-Port HUB allows up to seven USB 3.0 devices to be connected simultaneously at a transmission speed of 5 Gbps, while still providing connectivity and support for the older USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and 1.1 (12 Mbps) devices. It works with high-bandwidth SuperSpeed USB 3.0 devices, such as an external disk drive, high-resolution webcam, multi-channel audio and more. In addition, it supports fast charging for smartphones, tablets and iPad.

Holds each drive tight, but side by side may touch
on March 28, 2026
Posted by: Roger
Verified Purchase:Yes
This unit has good features and works as needed. I bought this and the other 7 port USB HUB from j5Creato to see how each would work on my system. A previous model from a different maker didn't hold the Thumb drives securely enough and would allow the drives to become disconnected occasionally. This model holds them securely, but this model, being side by side, may allow each Thumb drive to touch each other. This may require each drive to be shaved slightly.
Both units use a power brick to supplement power, but the data and power cables are not plug interchangeable between units (if it matters to the user in your installation).

I like Best Buy Total Tech
on January 2, 2026

Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the membership to Best Buy Total because it is automatic coverage on anything that purchase in the store. And besides this feature, it allows me to have some Geek Squad services included too, thus allowing me to save on their labor when I had computer assembly work done. The package has saved me money over the years.

I watched this one a long time in the past and I want to look at it again to remember it all. It was pretty good then and it is in the style that is popular at this time.

Great movie. I liked Michael J Fox back in the day of his show Family Ties and then he was going to make this movie. Absolutely loved them all and I'm watching them again in the current day of 2023. I'm a lot older but I can still appreciate this style. I have other movies of his made in the following years. They are good too.

Works well but could it be cheaper?

Works well, but because of the irregular shape it is difficult to attach a label to write on indicating the contents or meaning of contents. Should make a simple rectangular shape.

"AUX Hard Drives - USB 3.0"
1) While transferring massive amounts of data with many directories and files, unit will simply dropout (or go to sleep) and is difficult to wakeup.
2) After being "up" and available to system for a time (even days) it will dropout of availability, and cannot (sometimes) be made available even if the power is removed and reattached.
3) Don't like no power on light to indicate if operational.

Could be better
on September 23, 2023
Posted by: Roger
Verified Purchase:Yes
Don't Like It! The Software Interface is not adequate, and no education either written or verbal is offered. The option for Motion Detection will start the recording to begin, but at the end of the clip - there is not apparent way to continue to watch the action without interruption. The interface is also difficult to understand and enter the program settings options phase. Clarity is OK but there is no option to Zoom while watching clip - where are the instructions?

FALLOUT Synopsis On a dangerous assignment to recover stolen plutonium, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) chooses to save his team over completing the mission, allowing nuclear weapons to fall into the hands of a deadly network of highly-skilled operatives intent on destroying civilization.

There's never been a threat more destructive, stunts so jaw-dropping in the film critics are calling Inchthe best Mission yet!Inch (Erik Davis, Fandango). 147 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

I've seen all the Mission Impossible movies done by Tom to this point. I'm going to watch the other 4 again sometime to get re-familiar with them - but I think that this one had more impact in story and action by just a little. Good movie.

Big snuggly Ape and Big snuggly "ROCK"
on October 24, 2020
Posted by: Roger
Verified Purchase:Yes
I liked this movie. The picture will give a clue on the type of movie it will be. Dwayne Johnson does many types of movies - he is not type-cast. And I think that he pulls all of them off well. This plot is no less of a movie. If you like the "ROCK" then there is no reason not to watch this one. There is a lot of special effects in the movie - and especially at the end. But the effects are well done. I've already watched it twice to be sure I saw all the action, good even then.

Good Science Fiction with some suspense
on October 24, 2020
Posted by: Roger
Verified Purchase:Yes
I liked this movie. I thought that it was fun to watch and see how and what this person did that was stranded on Mars. Well I gave a little of the plot away, but what happens from that point on - I didn't give away. There's still suspense and questions to be resolved - so I recommend seeing it. I hope that others get satisfaction and have fun when watching it. I was stingy with the one star but I have to leave room when comparing to the best movie I have ever seen.

Enjoy entertainment on the go with this Sylvania 10-inch portable Blu-ray player. An adjustable Full HD display ensures image detail and clarity, while the top-panel button control center makes for smooth operation. This Sylvania 10-inch portable Blu-ray player features built-in stereo speakers for quality audio and a built-in rechargeable battery for convenience.
 

Can you plug in two sets of headphones, so two people can listen on the airplane?

I believe the technical answer is YES. But additional parts are needed. You must locate a splitter connector. Do a Google search with a sentence like the following: "Adapter for double headphone used on DVD player" - or - "Adapter with two male phono plugs and one female phono plug." The entire sentence is probably too long for Google, but try some combination of the words to get the correct result. Should be only a few dollars for the adapter and it must be the small plug type.

But there is one more issue in this case. The volume coming from these two headphones may be inadequate when using two headphones or when the surrounding noise level may be high. It would be desirable to get a small amplifier between the player and the output connector to the headphones. It will only cost about $20.00. I have this type of amplifier and it works great to allow me to listen over any amount of background noise. Search in Amazon and look through all the results until you locate a small $20 type. Make sure that you find ones that use only the power from the built in batteries and may or may not have a volume dial - there is a volume on the player itself. I have three different types of these models and they all work well.
