Hi All..
I find USB hubs that convert 1 USB port to 3 or 4 more ports and no external power needed.
Has anyone used it and in general is it a reliable device.
As such my mobo supports 4 back panel USB ports + 4 more headers .

I already have an USB extension cable, however wish to plug such a device in it so that I can have 3 to 4 handy USB ports upfront next to the the monitor. Thx.
