Pros: Both the card reader and disk interface work fine so far. I've used it to re-purpose some old 3.5" spinning drives for backups. Crystalmark showed 100MB/s sequential read and write, which is as fast as those disks were going directly to SATA. UAS works out of the box with both Windows 10 and Linux. U3 SD cards also perform as expected. Having the card readers and hub is a nice bonus if you have limited USB3 ports. There SD and micro SD slots are separate card readers, so you can use two cards at once, unlike some multi-adapters where the two slots are wired to the same physical interface.
Cons: The cord is a bit short (under 3 feet) to comfortably have the device on a desk with the computer on the floor. Un-mounting a SATA disk in windows is kind of awkward, since "safely remove" only lets you eject the entire device, and as far as I can tell you have to power the device off and on to get it back. This is probably mostly down to how windows handles composite devices, but it makes the hub less useful for keyboard, mouse or network plugged into the hub. You can eject SD cards individually using right click -> "eject" like normal.
Overall Review: I actually ordered a different product (with just the drive bay) so I was surprised when it showed up with card readers and a USB 3 hub. The seller eventually sent an explanation that was "due to the upgrade and maintenance of our backstage", and I have no complaint at all about a free upgrade on an already well priced product. Under linux, the device shows up as a GenesysLogic hub , ASMT ASM105x SATA interface and two generic USB card readers. The plug on the device is a USB3 B -Type, like used on printers.
