StarTech 4X4 USB 3.0 Peripheral Sharing Switch - For Mac / Windows / Linux is rated4.50 out of5 by2.
Rated 5 out of 5 byNick_142 from nullNice little addition to the desk. Small enough to stay out of the way too. Great for sharing anything USB. I've got a desktop PC and a TB3 dock on my desk (used with Macbook and a Dell mobile workstation). I can switch my backup drive, scanner, and USB headset between the PC and the dock without having to get into the cabling. Serious time saver. My PC and my dock don't share video, and swapping the keyboard/mouse was a pain. So while this is NOT a KVM, nor is it designed to be one, I was easily able to share the keyboard and mouse between my PC and my dock using this USB switch. :)I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

Rated 5 out of 5 byStarr from 4port Peripheral Sharing Switch USB 3.0 5GbpsWhat a great device. Everything you need comes in the box. It includes a cable with a one button push to change computers accessibility to the shared devices. The led lights show which computer is active. They even included a USB Micro-B port to allow you to plug in a 5V power cable in case your peripheral requires more power than what the computer delivers through the normal USB 3.0 ports.

Rated 5 out of 5 byAndrew11 from 4x4 SharingI really like the concept and design of this USB sharing switch. If you have a lot of computers and are sharing USB peripherals by moving cables around, this will allow you to connect them all together, and then with the included remote cabled switch, hide all those cables away and keep your work surface neat and tidy. One thing I did note was that for some USB Memory keys, you might need a microUSB cable to provide a little more power. This cable isn’t included and though most people have a bunch of them, it’s worth mentioning to have one handy during setup. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review
