Keep in mind that this unit is plugged into one USB port on the back of the computer so what you plug into it can only the amount of power equivalent to ONE USB port. For example: trying to plug two flash drives into this unit at the same time will probably fail simply because the single USB port that this unit receives it power from is not able to power two USB flash drives at the same time.
But plugging in a mouse and a keyboarding an external hard drive that has its own power supply ... all at the same time ... no problem! Works like a champ!
A side note to Amazon: at the beginning of this review Amazon asked me to rate the "cord length" ... take a look at the picture. It doesn't even HAVE a cord. The second thing I was asked to rate said "for traveling" ... This unit is specifically designed for use with a DESKTOP computer. I don't know of anyone that tries to 'travel' while dragging along their desktop computer. So you may want to rethink what would be more appropriate for rating. Such as 'functionality', or 'ease of installation', or 'convenience' .... all of which I would give a 5 star rating.
Most iMac user will know the struggle of reaching behind the computer to try and plug in a USB device. While rear mounted ports allow for a super clean look, they aren't the most user friendly and can be quite hard to access. This may leave you blindly trying to plug in a device or cable, and you may end up scratching your finish or doing some damage to a port. With the Sabrent hub, it allows you to utilize a rear port, but bring four ports to the front of your iMac. You do sacrifice some aesthetics, but for me it's not a big deal. I would rather have the ease of use that this hub provides. Installation was a bit tricky as everything is rigid and fits tight. Once installed it looks great and matches the color and style of the iMac very well. It is a plastic material, unlike the aluminum of the iMac shell, but that doesn't seem to detract from the aesthetics in my opinion.
This is a must buy for anyone wanting to add front facing USB ports without having to run cables.
