Compatible USB hubs

[SimonPeterKing]

Has anyone else had issues with finding a USB hub that works with the Surface Pro? I've tried a none powered, and a powered one too, and no joy. Is there a specific one that seems to work ok? Cheers...

I purchased one for my 2017 SP with a slightly different configuration than this one from Opluz. It is branded as Surkit. Mine has 2 USB 3.0 but I don't see that one available now. Works great even with external drive with no accessory power needed.

I used a Satechi 10-Port USB 3.0 Hub (9 Port USB 3.0 + 1 iPad Charging Port) 5 Volt, 5 Amp from 2013 until it died in 2016 so I got an Amazon Basics 7 Port USB 3.0 Hub with 12V/3A Power Adapter which is still working fine. Both are no longer available on Amazon, but any USB hub should work. I got powered ones because I'm running 4 portable HDs which get their power via the USB connection plus I use the iPad charging port.
