I need a reliable USB hub to use on Macbook Pro please

Any recommendations? I have already tried a few and I dont want to waste more money on hubs that might not work. Id rather pay the extra to get the recommended hub here to South Africa

I'm using the 7 port version of the D-Link recommended in the article

Thank you very much

There are several recommended hubs in this article. Which one are you referring to?

D-Link....7 Port.

AFAIK there's still only one chipset that does 7-port hubs. I have 2 from different makers that seem to work just fine no matter what I do with them.

7 port version of the D-Link is one of the best. I have built USB copy machines with those where Mac Minis had 5 of them connected. Never had a data problem in any live situation and cheaper then a DIY solution.
