Hardware & Technical Anyone Recommend a Decent Powered USB HUB?

As per title.

Ideally want 4+ ports. Price not an issue (within reason ).

Must be powered!

I've been using this one since last May. It's very good so far. It cost £30 on Amazon but there are cheaper ones with less ports.

I like the little 4 port Transcend USB 3 ones, and the 7 port Rosewill USB 2 ones. I've had bad luck with Belkin ones

I've never had much success with USB hubs myself, they are generally slow and seem to end up crashing my system.

I know you didn't ask for this specifically and to be honest, I don't even know what sort of machine you have. But assuming you have a desk top PC may I suggest you plug in some more USB ports?

Apologies if this is a waste of your time.

Thanks for the responses guys, I'll have a look at these.

Gone with a HooToo® 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub. £28 off Amazon. 7 USB ports and 2 charging ports. Should do the job a treat.

Thanks for the help guys.

I spent a lot of time deciding and went for this Orico hub. It works really well, and my Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS works perfectly through it along with my iPhone, iPad a thumbdrive and a little camera with a mic for Skype. No conflicts no hassle. Plug and play. It is metal and sits well on my desk and the angle of the slots are perfect.

Edit note:
The first hub was a standard 10 port USB hub. This one is a 7 port hub with 3 additional charging ports, which is the one I have.
