Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin FireWire 6-Port Hub
Customer Review: This model no longer supported by Belkin
Summary: 1 Stars
Belkin does not support this model any longer - it isn't even listed on their support website. I've had mine for several years and recently bought two new LaCie d2 Quadra drives - it works with all my older equipment (even two older drives of the same make and model) but will not recognize the new drives. I've narrowed the problem down to the hub but there are no firmware updates available and no troubleshooting advice in Belkin's knowledgebase.Customer Review: Fine for Awhile
Summary: 2 Stars
The Belkin was a replacement for an older Belkin of the same model that I thought had gone belly-up. This new "improved" version worked fine but only for about a month, then it went completely dead. I tried the old one to see if it would work until a new one I ordered had arrived and it works find WITHOUT the power transformer. I am using the old one now and keeping the new one as a replacement if this one decides to quit also.Customer Review: underpowered
Summary: 3 Stars
While it basically functions as it should, the hub seems to be slightly underpowered. I have just three devices plugged into it (two self-powered hard drives, and a Digi Mbox2Pro bus-powered audio interface), and it doesn't always recognize both drives. Also, sometime when I eject & turn off one of the drives, the audio interface disappears as well. As long as I don't change anything (i.e. turn off any drives), it works well.Customer Review: As Advertised
Summary: 4 Stars
Works as it should. It's enough for my needs and handles simultaneous activity on all ports well. Not an unbearable dropoff in performance while say, transferring huge files to an external hard drive, while burning a DVD, and fiddling with the iPod. If you're like me and you need your laptop to do a little more without adding to desk clutter uneccesarily, this should suit you fine.Customer Review: Exactly what I wanted and for a nice price too!
Summary: 5 Stars
This functions perfectly and was a nice, low price. No quality was compromised here - I've had it for months and haven't had a single problem. I can't imagine why anyone would buy a firewire hub that was more expensive than this, unless it was a Superman one like my USB hub! But this one looks modern and fits in with my stylish decor. Highly recommended!
