Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The product is generally satisfactory. It also seems to be very functional and designed properly. It works extremely well when combined with a quality usb hub.



Cons

Plastic shell comes apart like a pistachio. Very cheaply made. Unfortunately didnt work. This proves that this product is fake advertising.

The connector is usb-c but it only works at usb 2. And gets random disconnects. The chip it uses, a via vl711, is incompatible with uas (usb attached scsi) in linux.
