Review: Very handy gadget. - I was rebuilding my 6 yr old desktop to get it Win 11 compatible so I thought this would be a nice addition since I was pulling out a DVD drive anyway. Install was a snap, all the cables were easily long enough to reach their respective connectors on the MB and it fit in the bay just fine. Totally plug and play, all ports and card readers work fine. I've not tried the headphone or mic jacks since I don't need them but the audio and mic popped right up in the audio settings. Having the card reader is handy instead of digging out a dongle to read cards. Construction is good, it feels solid. One thing to note is it does need a SATA power connection, I was out of SATA connectors but used a Molex to SATA adapter with no issue. If you want something like this it's a good piece.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very handy gadget.

Works great for what I wanted.

### ⭐ Got 2 of them, both of them were DOA!
*by J***N on January 3, 2026*

I should have heeded the other 1 star reviews. I received this and let it sit in my closet in my closet for more than 3 months because I hadn't gotten around to moving my PC mother board to a new case. Installed this device in my new case and it didn't work tested the sata power cable, device was getting power, but the usb ports do absolutely nothing, won't even charge a device, I tested the 3.0 and 3.1 ports on my new case, they work just fine using the same motherboard ports. I found a card in the box claiming a "lifetime" warranty, I got in contact with someone in customer service and they sent me another one and didn't ask for the old one back, it did arrive very quickly, I plugged in the new replacement... Shocker, it didn't work either. I got in contact with them again and told them I did more diagnostic steps on my own to absolutely verify that this device is DOA, I also asked if they could send me a "known good" one, they got back with me asked me for my motherboard make and model, I sent them this 2 days ago as of writing this and they haven't gotten back with me, could be because of the weekend though. I find it astonishing that in 2026 I can't get a USB hub that works... I'll update this if I ever get this issue resolved but I'm past the amazon return window, these will probably end up in garbage as more E-waste.
