Looking for a USB hub to use with 2(preferably 3) WD 8tb Easystores.

What do you guys recommend? Looking at various brands and reviews on Amazon has been really nonproductive - too many reports about equipment unreliability and failure.

I’ll be plugging the hub into a 2.0 port on my Zidoo X9S. The 3.0 port seems to cause intermittent problems from RF interference.

Thx.

Available through Amazon.

I've been using several of these with excellent results.

I like that I can turn the port off if I want. But it's worked great with my USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 devices.

I ran across an Amazon lightning deal for an Anker 4 port non-powered 3.0 hub right after I posted.

Got this for $5: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L32B9C2/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The WD drives each only need 26mA from the hub, so I’m able to run all 3 off my Zidoo or PC.

Been working without problems so far.

Thanks for the replies.
