If you want to skip all this and read the final comment, go for it.The blue screen I got is probably because I'm running another 15 port USB hub that is 13 ports and 2 charging ports, alongside this 16 port sabrent USB hub, so when I plugged a bunch of things in the 15 port hub and then plugged in 1 item in the 16 port sabrent it gave me a blue screen with error in USB driver conflicts. This could happen because of many things, for me, it is because my laptop ran out of memory resources and USB driver resources to be exact and my laptop being too old there are no updates for it and no updates for my old OS Windows 7 Home, so what I did which seems to have fixed it was switched the computer off, wait about 10–20 seconds then I unplugged everything and turned it on without anything connected to the USB ports.When the computer boots up into windows, and everything has loaded up completely, then I plugged in the 15 port USB hub, and then plugged devices in one at a time, Then plugged in the 16 port Sabrent hub and plugged in about 4 devices, all seem to work fine now no blue screen of death as I used to call it in the 90s. However, 3 ports in the 15 port hub do not work because the resources must be used with the 16 port sabrent, go figure not surprised it's 13+16 ports would be hard to get all ports used.For me the only downside to using this 16 port hub would be losing 3 ports out of the 13 port hub I have, but to be fair and honest I haven't used up all the 16 ports of sabrent yet, it may actually limit me to less than 20 ports total. Only time will tell when I fill it up, and I promise I'll update my review if I come across any issues like it can't take any more.In this case you are better off getting and keeping one USB hub in your system and 16 ports seems to be the better one as you can use them for anything data or power charging for phone charging etc...I do admit this looks good, and it's well-made to build quality is top-notch, storage capacity well if you can get all 16 ports to work and each one contains 8TB SSD you would have to be super rich, but it technically is able to take 8TB x 16 ports = 128TB or 12TB x 16 ports = 192TB I'm not rich enough to test this out, but in theory why not.The 90 watts should be enough power and if you don't turn on all 16 ports, it won't use all the 90 watts just being on, it only draws the power of what it's using. I don't think that 90 watts is enough to fill all 16 ports with power hungry USB ports, unless they come with their own power supply to help.I'd say this should have been 100-120watts to give those 16 ports enough room to breathe if filling it all up. If worse comes to worst you can unplug the others and just use this 16 port USB hub which should work on newer computers if it was plug and play with my old system, I see no reason for it not to work with a new system.Final comment:This is a sleek individual 16 port hub that feels cool to the touch, it is an aluminium shell around it, it's a good product and should be plug and play, any issues like blue screens maybe caused by individual user setups and personal computer issues.It can be used to charge phones and products, or data like hard drives and USB flash disks, each USB port is individually switched on/off indicated by a small blue light, that seems to be kept in its own slot meaning the light doesn't turn on in the next USB slot if the previous slot has a blue light on, so I didn't notice any light leaking out.It is exactly as stated on the product page it comes with a 3 pin plug and a 2 pin if you need to use an adapter, it came with a rear screen panel with screws and plastic anchors to fit it on, for some reason I can't see any way for me to use it with this hub this might be a unique setup thing, but it's included, and everything is as stated on the product page.Will update if there's any issues.

Solid bit of kit for managing multiple USB devices without the usual tangle. Each port’s got its own power switch with a clear LED indicator—makes it easy to control what’s active without unplugging anything. Transfer speeds are fast and stable, even when all four ports are running. Build’s lightweight but sturdy, and the compact design keeps your desk clean. Used it for soundcards, drives, and charging gear—no lag, no fuss. If you want control and speed in one tidy unit, this hub delivers.
