I have 3 Juiced Systems 10 port USB 3.0 hubs each running 9 block eruptors plus a USB fan.  I haven't bothered testing them with 10 miners because I am using the 10th port for a fan.  They have been mining for about 2 days now with no problem.  I actually like their greater density compared to the Anker 10 port.  It makes one USB fan cool them much better.  Since I don't know how to include an image in my post, I posted an image here:

As much as I hate to repeat myself I posted a review of the Juiced 10-port hub in another thread( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=263577.msg2824064#msg2824064) so I'll paste it here:
-------
I bought the Juiced 10-port from Amazon and suggest getting something else.  It'll run 8 erupters but when you plug in a 9th it starts to lose contact with one, then another, then another and the only way to fix that is either restart cgminer or unplug/replug the miner.  The Anker's extra amp makes a big difference.

Adding insult to injury my Raspberry Pi can't see this hub at all, so I think I'm going to order the Anker from Amazon and return this one.

Are you sure that it isn't a problem with your USB driver or something like that? What OS are you using?  I am running bfgminer on Linux Mint 15 with no problems with 9 Block Eruptors on each hub.
