My laptop has only three USB ports. Two of them are so close together, that I can only use one at a time. This hub gives me the chance to plug my mouse in next to the disc player and gives me the additional space to plug in memory sticks, etc. I usually use about four or five when I am trying to demonstrate a carving technique or show an article. The cost and reliability of this hub gives me the chance to share pictures and even make copies of plans for my friends. My laptop goes with me and this hub gives me a chance to readily share information as I want to. And it does NOT interfere with keeping the basic laptop stable for working. GREAT!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have gone through two battery operated "wireless" devices. They always seem to fail when you need them the most! This wired mouse does not need batteries, it does NOT send our signals that can be intercepted and it works when you need it!

This cable is the perfect length to connect a small hub to my laptop to permit using a wired mouse and not interfere with the CD/DVD installed in the laptop.

I have had about four or five electric razors during my life. This Philips Norelco is EASILY the best I have ever used! It is comfortable to use, convenient and gives a good shave at any time of the day! Yes, I still keep my mug and brush to use when I am in an area I cannot get convenient electricity - to re-charge the razor - BUT, I will use this Norelco every chance I can get!

My wife told me to CLEAN UP MY SPACE! - or else. I have about 200 cd's and 100 dvd's that I have made up from home movies and special events. A lot of the cd's are recorded from my old record collection, some date back to the 40's. This rack is GREAT for keeping the ones I want immediately handy, safe and easy to locate a particular one. It does not take up a lot of floor space and tucks up right next to my desk with the computer and disc player close by. Another great thing - the price was right!

I bought 2 drives. They are PERFECT for selective back-up and transportability. I can use them to securely store data that is generated on a computer that does not go on line and transport them with me on trips, to meetings and to provide information to unit members and friends that have need of that information. And it is NOT subject to being hacked by anyone!

can this insignia USB 4 port be used to connect a keyboard & printer to ports on my laptop computer? Is 480 Mbps powerful enough for both printer and keyboard connections to be used at the same. I had a HUBMAN 4 port that lasted only a month.

It should be. Your keyboard will receive power from the computer thru the hub. The printer should have its own power supply and the 480MBps is fast enough for most file transfers. Take care when plugging into the hub, the connections can be damaged unintentionally when debris is present.

does this come with a power supply

No, it receives power from the device it is plugged into.

The hub is plugged into a fast charger for my Samsung Galaxy S8. It seems the charging is very slow with either the Wireless charger or the Type C connector to the phone. Is there a reduction of power/voltage to the two ports used?

ANY port that is shared will have a reduction in power. Your power supply puts out "X" amount of power. The first item plugged into it will receive ALL of that power, less the loss of conversion and transmission. When you plug in a SECOND item, the amount of power from the power supply remains the same, with the exception of the power loss by wire resistance due to the increased current. That is why a higher output charger comes with the "Smart" phone than comes with the older "Flip" phones. If the device is in "reduced power mode" there is more current available to charge the battery than there would be if you were using the phone actively. The voltage remains very close to the same - there is "SOME" voltage loss due to the resistance of the wires with a higher current load. The problem lies with the CURRENT output capability of the power supply, that is the limiting factor.

Price on website

why is it that on the website it shows Amazon 40.95 Best Buy 39.99 and Newegg for 42.99 but when you go to your site it suddenly jumps to 69.99?
All I can say is watch for the sales - I did not pay near that when I made my purchase.

U3 enabled?

It says that it is U3 enabled, yet it doesn't come with U3, and when I try to install U3 from www.sandisk.com it says that the flash drive is unsupported. So how do I get U3 on it?
It is a USB 2.0 drive. It works, make that functions, in a USB3 enabled slot, but it does not have the USB 3.0 access speeds.
