Features and functionality

  • The D-Link DUB-H7 supports up to 16 endpoints with seven 4TB HDDs connected, indicating its capacity for multiple high-capacity drives.

    Source

    Source

User experience

  • Some users report the hub works well with 2.5" external drives and mice but not with 4TB HDDs, suggesting potential compatibility issues.

    Source
  • A user noted that the DUB-H7 does not backfeed power to Raspberry Pi Zero, alleviating previous concerns with older versions.

    Source

Setup and maintenance

  • A powered hub is recommended if HDDs lack their own power sources, though this hub was confirmed to work with PSU-powered drives for data transmission only.

    Source
  • The hub requires the 5V line connected for an initial handshake, essential for functionality, unlike some cheaper hubs.

    Source

Comparisons

  • An alternative model, the Orico 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub, was suggested for better reliability, contrasting with reported issues of D-Link hubs failing unexpectedly.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • USB 2.0 is considered sufficient for Chia farming, but the hub may have limitations with multiple high-capacity HDDs when used without additional power support.

    Source
  • The hub was successfully used with a Raspberry Pi Zero, showing no power LED activation, indicating no backfeeding.

Fine most of the time, sometimes temperamental.

Sleek little powered hub, which works pretty well. I use it to connect 7 extra midi devices (keyboards, pad controllers etc.) to my computer. Latency hasn't been an issue that I've found so far, so that's good, and the extra power is ideal if the devices connected have a lot of LEDs (like the Akai APC Mini, for example). I did have a number of problems when connecting it to the USB 3.0 port on my computer, but that is possibly due to the connected devices having issues, not the hub. Occasionally the connected devices all need unplugging and replugging individually, which is a bit of a pain, but it makes sure all the necessary drivers start on the computer.
