## Description

Review: Great little unit - This little gem does exactly what I was looking for i.e. allowing me to plug in multiple external drives (3) which require power. It works perfectly with all my drives recognising them immediately. I haven't tested for transfer speed, but that's not an issue for me: I usually transfer large volumes of data and just leave the computer to get on with it. Can't really comment on the fast charger port as this is of no interest to me. As with some other reviewers I received the unit with EU power supply. I went online to arrange for a replacement and received new UK version the next morning, Kudos to desertcart for this speedy service which I have had occasion to use in the past. For me it's five stars because it does exactly what I wanted.
Review: Using with a Raspberry Pi - The Raspberry Pi requires a maximum of around 750 mA to be supplied via a micro USB port. (There is a 'polyfuse' of 750 mA). The Raspberry Pi also has USB2 port for data communications. The power that can be supplied by the Raspberry via its USB2 ports is limited. Insufficient to power USB drives and, probably, WiFi adapters. Hence the need for a powered USB hub. I had planned to supply power via the TS-HUB3K "dedicated fast charging port" and use the other 3 ports for communications. This will not work and Transcend have offered no solution. The problem is that the Raspberry Pi boots when power is supplied, however shortly later the Raspberry activates it's USB2 ports and thus the hub's 'upstream' port. The hub reacts by momentarily interrupting the power supply. This causes the Raspberry Pi to reboot and the sequence loops. The power supply LED on the Raspberry flashes (about once a second). However, there is a way around this problem. But this means that power cannot be supplied via the 'dedicated fast charging port'. The solution is to power the Raspberry via one of the other hub's ports - NOT the 'dedicated fast charging port' The USB3 standard says that a USB3 port can supply up to 900 mA (USB2 is 500 mA). If (this has not be confirmed) the Transcend port does this then this should be sufficient to supply the 750 mA needed. It might be the hub sees an 'upstream' port of USB2 not 3 and therefore limits to 500 ma. In practice I have successfully run a Raspberry in this way with an external USB disk and WiFi adapter. Also to get more power from the 'dedicated fast charging port' requires special drivers that are only available on Windows or OS/x i.e. not the the Raspberry Pi Atom. Finally it may need care on what devices are supported via the 'dedicated fast charging port' - they would need to tolerate a power interruption early in the boot process. WiFi OK?, hard disk used soon after boot? In summary, I would say that I am happy with the port for use with a Raspberry Pi but that there are some limitations that had to be investigated at some considerable investment in time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well pleased
*by D***O on 4 January 2015*

Very pleased with it and bought a second one for my son's PC. Worked immediately straight from the box - no messing about. Have 2x 2TB Seagate USB3.0 external hard drives plus 1x 1 TB USB2.0 external hard drive attached to my PC and it copes with no problem. Haven't used the charging port for charging so can't comment on that. As mentioned on other reviews the lead from the hub to the PC is very short - about 12 inches - which is the only drawback hence only 4 stars.
