4.0 out of 5 stars Super item but price holds this puppy down, June 4, 2001

This review is from: Belkin 7-Port Customizable USB Busstation Modular Hub (Personal Computers)

How many of you own more than 4 USB devices on one computer? Even if you have 3 USB devices, you are probably about to trash that little 4-port USB hub you just bought. That's where this 7-port USB hub comes in.

It would probably be messy to daisy chain more than one 4-port USB hub. This 4-tier, 7-port USB hub is totally expandable. You can change this modular hub into any combination, ranging from 4-USB ports to 12-USB ports to adding a serial port, etc.

At the high price, it's kinda hard to purchase if you're trying to upgrade from a 4-port USB hub to this ... .

My computer has only one USB port and I was forever switching out peripherals...really frustrating.

Then I spotted this USB 7-Port Busstation, bought it and have never had to switch anything again. Absolutely trouble-free (just be sure to keep all your connections one after another...if you have a gap, anything after the gap won't function) Right now, I have 2 printers, a scanner, a DVD external recorder, video camera and card reading device...all connected thru the hub and all working perfectly.

THANK YOU BELKIN!!!

I love this device and it has for sure changed my computing life!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Flexability, Not so Great Price, August 17, 2003

I bought the Belkin 7-Port USB Busstation Modular Hub because I was in need of a great number of USB ports for a server of mine. While the price was a bit outrageous origionally, I happened to find it on clearence and scooped it up.

It works very well, looks pretty nice, and having the flexability of the different modules Belkin makes could be handy.

A great USB 1.1 Hub for [the money], but not for [more], considering the cost of the additional modules.
