Usb 3.0 is the same for pc's and mac's. If you have a 3.0 port it will work. The provided cable is short, 2 feet maybe. I bought this to extend it. http://www.cablewholesale.com/products/usb-firewire/usb-3.0-cables/product-10u3-02110e.php This really is a good hub for the money, it's well built, and it's powered even when the computer is off so it charges your devices when the computer is powered down.

I had trouble connecting my MacBook with Sentey's 4-port hub. My Logitech mouse (M325) never worked through the hub. The K750-Mac sometimes worked, but lost connection so much that I bought an Apple bluetooth keyboard.

I do not have this particular hub. The one I do have, the USB cable is approximately 30 inches, more or less; I still have the cable connected to the back of my computer, so I cannot be precise.

Yes. However, there can be issues with mac USB ports management of them. If you have issue try to use an external USB port, powered hub, etc of some type to help.

I can't answer that I just got the plug and not the hub. I ended up buying one in a local computer store and ie T works excellent

It is mac compatible, yes. However, it is not optimized for macs. The unit comes with two USB connectors for your mac, which connects it to the drive. Even with both connectors plugged in, some macs will disconnect from the drive while you work. As you can imagine, this is absurdly annoying, but is not a problem unique to this particular drive. A lot of macs have the same problem with USB 3 bus powered drives. The speed difference isn't even that noticeable from usb 2.0, so if you can find one, just get a USB 2 drive and save yourself some grief.

I haven't tried either, but it should work. Since the hub takes up more space in a small area that I like, I don't use with my laptop.

I have to plead total ignorance when it comes to Macs, never even typed a keystroke on one. I am PC, born and raised. I used the USB 3.0 cable included with the hub to connect it to the USB 3.0 port at the rear of my PC tower. If your Mac has a USB 3.0 (or 2.0) hub, you should be able to make the connection. Hope that helps. (If you connect it to a USB 2.0 port, you will not get 3.0 performance.)

Yes it is compatible with MAC OS; at least it says so in the product description. I am using it with a Samsung Laptop and it works very well&gt; note when I received it the instructions say that the unit doers not operate as well if plug into hub. What the product description does not tell you is that it requires two usb plugs to operate; I plug mine into a hub and it works fine. Bueno Suerte

Not that I'm aware of. However, I had no issues using it. Unfortunately, certain products don't work through a USB hub, regardless if they're Apple products or not.

I have it connected via iMac. I use an external hard drive w/esata to USB 3.0 adapter, iPod classic, and anything else that I have needed! Fantastic hub with lightning fast transfer speed!

I have not had any issues with the USB cable. I've connected the device to many PCs. I have not used it on MAC. It fits into the standard USB port.

I actually bought one that was specifically for Mac so not sure why my review was posted under this product. The one I bought was this one: Unitek USB 3.0 HUB 3 ports usb3+1 charger-only Built-in USB 3.0 hub usb 3.0 mac. It works perfectly.

This will work on any Mac with a USB 2 port. It would not be needed if the Mac has a functional Ethernet RJ45 port.

It will work with a mac as well...obviously will only give you usb 2.0 speeds but will function just fine.

Yes! It will work great with your iMAC or MAC PRO. Don't try to use a HUB that doesn't have it's own power source because the USB ports on the iMAC WILL NOT pass the required power through the HUB, not if you don't have the later type that have the additional connections for the power transfer. They cost quite a bit more. I have used it on Delicious Library and on CLZ Books and both work great. Have a problem, I just might be able to help. Happy scanning.

I actually own both types of USB's shown in the picture and both of them work without any issues. I run a Mac OSX Version 10.8.5.
