Today, I wish to do a review about TPLINK USB3.0 4 Port Portable Hub, model number UH400.
The front, side and back of the box.UH400.Official link of the item - click me
This model functions without any external power. Just simple plug and play which is very convenient for those who are having 1 or 2 USB hub on their laptop.
Let’s look at the specification first shall we?Dimensions = 2.8 x 2.8 x 0.7 in. (71 x 71 x 16.6 mm) Output Interface = 4 USB 3.0 Ports Input Interface = USB 3.0 Type-A Chipset = VIA VL812 Chipset with Latest Firmware Supported Systems = Windows, Mac OS X and Linux systems Package contents = USB 3.0 4-Port Portable Hub UH400 and Quick Installation GuideSo, again, it is SMALL and LIGHT, hence, easy to carry around and functioning well without any external power.Size comparison with a pen.
White LED will light up when you slot in a pendrive/other USB input.
I have tested the USB hub with my laptop and here are the results.
I used Iklips pendrive (http://www.adamelements.com/iKlips/iklips.html) and WD My Book 4TB as my storage and below are the copy speed from laptop to the external source without using the adapter.
*copy speed = 29MB/s
*copy speed = 32MB/s
Now here is the picture of Iklips + USB HUB.
*copy speed = 26MB/s
Another picture with Kingston 2.0 pendrive + USB HUB
*copy speed = 8MB/s
Here is the picture of WD My book + USB HUB.
*copy speed = 31MB/s
Let’s see the double action.
*copy speed = 18.2MB/s to Iklips and 21.8MB/s to WD Mybook
From what I can conclude is the copy speed dropped just a TINY LITTLE BIT compared to direct plug in and I am very satisfied with the TPLINK UH400 as my USB portable hub. *highly recommended product
