Full disclosure: I requested a discount to purchase USB Network Gate in return for writing this review.
However, I kept my review as objective as possible.USB Network Gate is an interesting and unique solution to many problems. In my particular case, I needed to have access to multiple hard drives across several mac and windows computers and also be able to share input devices among them.To use the same hard drives across multiple computers, I was using the traditional method of unplugging each drive from one computer and plugging it into another computer.
This can work fine for occasionally doing so with small, portable hard drives that are powered by the same USB cable that transfers the data. However, this process can quickly get inconvenient and burdensome when it needs to be done several times a day, especially with desktop hard drives that also have a power supply cord.USB Network Gate provides a unique solution to this problem: It lets me leave all my hard drives connected to a single computer with USB Network Gate installed and easily access them from any other computer that also has USB Network Gate installed.
