In order for the 1byone® USB 3.0 4-Port Hub Aluminium is interesting primarily for users of tablets or netbooks that want to expand their terminals go to three USB 3 sockets (a connection is indeed occupied on the device for the stroke -> it Then there are three more available). For stationary use, the 7-port hub with the possibility of external power supply is certainly the more universal choice.
