Anyone with experience with either of these two devices? Looking to setup a wired networked USB hub to run a printer, scanner, and one or two USB HDDs. Both are USB 2.0 but the Silex Pricom costs $150 while the Keyspan costs $100. No real technical reviews online. Can anyone speak to their performance or reliability?
 
It s a "crap shot".

You never know it works with some devices and does not work with others.

Because it is $100 for few devices, it is very tempting but you re much better off spending more and buying real Network dedicated devices.

Darn. Do you mean that some devices will not work at all or that the device wouldn't know how to deal with multiple users? If its the latter, I'm actually willing to accept that limitation. If its that some USB devices just flat-out don't work, then of course, that'd be a showstopper....
