Another USB 3.0 Hub conspiracy theory

#1 Post by kanliot »

Basically I think that the better USB hubs allow connection offloading or something, and the cheaper ones, can barely keep track of devices.

I was gonna buy a new USB 3.0 hub, just so I don't have to lean over the back of the PC, but I'm getting too paranoid.

Please provide references on cheap USB 3.0 Hub functions so I can feed my conspiracy theories.
Thank you.

Here's a reference that applies to cheap USB hubs and lots of other cheap hardware - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturgeon%27s_law
