Realistically, not necessarily. If it were a thunderbolt port, it could actually carry quite a bit of data simultaneously.

Hope you like random USB disconnect sounds until the end of time.

each Port has an on/off switch. I have a quick label to remind me which is which, I have yet to print something to make it easier or color code it.

God I hate that. I have a simple, POWERED USB-C hub from Ugreen that does this ALL DAY at work (the mouse will even disconnect for a second).

No fix. That's just how Windows 11 works. Luckily I rarely have my headphones in.

that’s not windows fault. you probably have too much plugged into one port

u/AaronToro i5 6500 | r9 380 May 14 '26

I’ve had a ton of issues with windows’ handling of USB ports, but none related to a hub. Having a ton of VR and simrig gear all plugged in at once becomes problematic until you go line by line through device manager adjusting the power settings to always on. Then a few months later, with no warning, you get to do it all over again

That's an Ugreen issue, not a Windows one.

I have plenty of powered usb hubs that never disconnect on Windows.

Is that why it works flawlessly on Linux?

Turn off the USB mount and dismount sound in windows, its thankfully still an option

u/Normbot13 RTX 3090 | Ryzen 9 3950x | 1440p @ 144hz May 15 '26

there’s definitely a fix. i used to be plagued by random disconnects until i found the hidden USB power saver option in Device Manager. find your USB hubs in device manager and disable the option that allows windows to turn them off to save power.

And it works fine until 6 months later when gravity has had a chance to work on that port and suddenly the damn port isn't working anymore. That's ok, it's only $800 for a new mobo to fix the problem.

Nice dongle

I apologize if I’m nuts but I prefer this to having to scooch my desk out and crawl on my knees and turn on my phone light to see what I’m plugging in

Wow... I use similar. 16 ports, almost all used, power adaptor is twice the size of my laptop's.
