  Gives service but at a minimum

  Assembled by LDLC, the hub is wired to the motherboard via a USB c/USB A adapter.
  The transfer rate is lower than the normal rate of a USB 2 socket, and the power supply accepts a USB flash drive but will not power a small external hard drive (except SSDs).
  Connecting the power supply directly to the ali block hasn't changed anything in terms of accepting external hard drives.
  I've moved away from the motherboard connection to a direct connection to an external usb socket, which has brought the transfer rate down to more acceptable levels.
  Good for USB sticks, but very random for external hard drives.

  OK, but this is a classic USB connection

  I didn't notice, but at the end of the internal cord it's a regular USB connector and not the one that goes on motherboards.
  Plus it's quite short, so in an ATX full case it's not long enough to pull out and plug into an external USB port.
  So this case is good for those who have a standard USB connector inside the case or you have to buy an internal USB to normal USB adapter (from 5 €).
  Otherwise it's well made, adaptable for 3.5" or 5" and has a SATA power cord to add power.
  It would have been better if it had a USB-C output and the possibility to mount a hard drive behind it.

  Unsuitable for a conventional PC case

  Product to avoid! Don't read the description diagonally (like me): The "internal" connector is a simple USB3 cable, which is too short to be able to come out of the case! And by pulling on it, it disconnects from the PCB in the small case, and then of course, the computer doesn't detect.
  Anecdotal positive point: The 3.5" to 5.25" adapter bay does its job properly. It's a pity that it has to be sent back with the hub for the product return.

  That's almost it

  The problem is that my motherboard has no internal USB connector, only one row of pins, so I have to tinker. I also had to add a SATA bit to my power supply.

  to be avoided

  I'm not sure I'm going to be able to use this product for a long time, but I'm sure I'll be able to use it for a long time to come, and I'm sure I'll be able to use it for a long time to come.

  A good idea, but unusable! :o(

  the + :
  - 4 USB 3.0 ports on the front
  - small footprint: 3.5" bay
  - 5.25" bay compatibility
  
  the minuses
  - connection via USB 3.0 A connector
  (a connection to the CM would have been much better)
  - cable infinitely too short!
  
  I bought two of them. :o(

  Unusable and very disappointed

  I had to take the case apart and replace it with a 1.80m cable... In addition, when I wanted to connect an external 2.5" drive, it would only connect if I lifted the cable from the drive to make the connection... An unusable device to avoid! I am disappointed.

  do not buy

  received on time but did not work
  I've been using it for a while now, but it's not working, so I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board.
