It does what it says!
I used it for Raspberry Pi 5 as a NAS. I bought the variant with external charging. Charger comes within the Box. Didn't do any kind of benchmarking but it was flawless to my needs. Highly portable. All ports supported 3.0. Device Detection had no issues. Easily installable and supports most of the latest hardware.

Genuinely impressed
This review is primarily intended towards iOS users. To cut the long story short, kudos to the designers of this product...IT WORKS and works like charm (I was able to run 1 Terabyte HDD on iPhone SE 1st gen). So the long version goes like this:As soon as I got the product, I connected my seagate 1TB HDD to the iPad Air 2020. To my horror it didn’t work. The HDD did not show up in my native files app. I tried the 4th port (provides a higher amp). Nope, it didn’t work. The 128gb pen drive did though. But it works anyways on the iPad Air 2020 without an actively powered hub. Disappointed, with no option to return the product, I ordered a replacement and shot a frustrated email to QZ.A QZ executive replied back the next day and patiently listed possible reasons for the failure. The moment my eyes went onto the issue of NTFS formatting on iOS, I knew this had to be the most probable cause as I had read the same elsewhere as well. So, now I had to format it into FAT32.Windows 10, natively cannot do FAT32 format on storages more than 32 GB. I didn’t know that and took some time to find a alternative formatting application. Finally I did a FAT32 quick format on the entire 1 TB (I didn’t create any partition within the HDD). And guess what, the iPad showed my HDD as a storage drive on my native iOS files app using the QZ hub. I know what some of you are thinking...iPad Air 2020 DOESN’T require any active powered hub to read an external drive (at least up to 1TB I guess and mine is not an SSD). Yes you read that right. Bummer!!! I had no idea. After formatting it to FAT32, it’s just plug and play with an adapter which coverts USB A to C WITHOUT additional power.But I was more than happy to see my old iPhone SE Ist gen showing the HDD in files app using the hub. And I guess even the iPad will be happy that the HDD is running from external power. The possibilities are endless now. Unless, apple goofs up in future updates.So...it works, quality seems to be good, sturdy enough for regular use. In terms of value for money, what can I say. I was going for a NAS to sort out file transfer issues on iOS (I mostly work on raw photography files). There is no comparison to the money that I thought I had shell out for a NAS. Even when compared to other hubs, this thing costs 1/10th.Hope it continues to work for some time. GO FOR IT....

Working as expected
I connected two drives, one SSD (Crucial BX550M 512GB using SATA to USB connector) and HDD (WD elements 1TB). There were no speed drops during transfer and it all went seamlessly. It's a great product if you're looking to extend your system's storage (well, not as minimal as internal disks but still).Edit: After few weeks, it wasn't able to detect the SSD/HDD. I contacted the QZ support and they kindly helped throught the process. I sent the package back to them as requested for faults, but they found as such no faults on their end. They refunded the unit's price instead. Thats something I liked about the support and would make want to buy again from them :)

HARD DRIVES WON'T RANDOMLY DISCONNECT
Good Product for the price. I just wish they had included individual switches so that I can just leave some of my receivers there and forget about them and turn on the individual switch when needed to use the device.Most importantly, if you want to pla games from hard drive and own multiple hard drives, then go for this product. Your hard drives won't disconnect randomly like with those cheap non-powered usb hubs.If you are a professional or want a good product, spend some money and get this one. It will be worth it trust me.

Awsome brand and product
I chose this brand because already i use another device from this same brand after a thorough research and reviews on all other brands. Its an hdd casing to make an internal hdd work as an external hdd and it has been 3 yrs running with no issues. So I love this brand. Recently i was looking for an usb hub to connect my macbook pro with my midi keyboard and sound card. So i was expecting a usb hub from the same brand. And luckily they have. Its working superb. Build quality is good sturdy and cutely portable too with 7 usb ports. Detects my ipad, samsung A50, logitech wireless keyboard mouse, ext. hdd., midi keyboard, presonus sound card with zero lags in recognising. I run all these devices together and it only takes fraction of a second to recognise. Tranafer rate is superb. No heating issues yet while running these devices all together. Also one port is dedicated to charge android and apple. In my opinion its 100% worth buying. Satisfactory experience. Price is a bit on the higher side i think. Note:** i use an usb to c type converter to connect it to my macbook pro. I recommend this device.
