I currently have a Sabernet 4 port USB hub that is a 2.0 in and out port. Charging speeds are slow, data transfer speed is at 2.0 speeds, however it does have a powered hub available so it can charge at regular speeds.
I recently needed more USB ports, as I only have 2 total on my laptop. I wanted 10 total. This is Ankers 10 port USB hub, 9 with data transfer and either 2.0 or 3.0 charging, I do not know if there is a difference, as well as a 10th fast charging port at the very bottom.
So far I've had 6 ports plus the charger plugged in and in use, all functioning and charging at expected speeds for each port (the speed charging port estimates just under 2 hours for the S7 Active and the ASUS ROG, about a hour and a half for the S6 Edge, while the data ports all list roughly 2hr 30min to 3 hours.
Most USB hubs can be daisy-chained, usually the max is around 64 USB ports total.
I've only had this for a few weeks, but it's been treating me just fine. I have noticed that I need to unplug it, and other plugs, when booting my laptop into Windows 10, but not MacOS. This is an issue I've had in the past and I believe is mostly a Windows issue, and not related to the USB hubs specifically. However, it's worth noting.
Does your laptop have 5 USB ports? If you're using a USB hub you may want to make sure that you are using a hub that is externally powered as opposed to one that is not. Your HDDs might be trying to draw more power than your computer supplies to the hub.
Out of curiosity, what do you use 8+ HDDs for?
Micro USB Host OTG Y Splitter with Power
You'll also need another cable to go from the controller (probably Mini-B) to the OTG cable (USB-A)
