Reveiw after 4 months use.

Koutech IO-HU1300 13-Port USB 2.0 External Hub

Pros: 13 USB ports in a nice convenient location.

Cons: Only 10 of the 13 ports workes right out of the box. The quality control just isn't there. I bought the same unit for my computer at work and 11 of the 13 ports work.

Lasted 4 1/2 Months

Pros: Decent Price, Quick Set-Up.

Cons: Somewhat slow. Extra HD (rebate offer) took 4 months to deliver.

Overall Review: I bought this unit back in November of last year. It was installed in December and has worked well until 1 week ago. It basically died and displayed the dreaded "Kernel Panic" message. Tech support was helpful and even though we updated the firmware and did a memeory test (all okay), it still wouldn't boot. I just received the rplacement unit and it seems to be working fine now. The jury is still out on this one. Stay tuned...
