You probably want a powered hub, unless you are using if for data only, and never connect an unpowered appliance, or use it as a charger.

This one has served flawlessly for last 6 years on my desktop:

D-Link 7-Port USB w/ power adapter:

Probably have updated versions with all the new port types. I use it just for USB plug/play things like a desktop mic, videocam, external drives, and headsets.
