Hi,

I am looking for recommendations for a powered USB hub for my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro (I need to buy 2 hubs).

I currently have a D-Link 7 port powered USB hub but it has issues with the machine waking from sleep - I almost always have to manually unplug and replug it from my mac pro to get it to recognize all the devices after waking from sleep.

I'm looking for a USB hub that doesn't require this annoying manual workaround.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

You really should search...this question has been asked and answered many times here.

Anyway - I'll be nice since it's close to Christmas and say I've used 3 of these for a couple years and they are great http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-High-S...N9GA/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1291983799&sr=8-4

Thanks. I just like reviving old threads. I figured a Belkin was the way to go.
