Thus far my Gen5 hasn't locked up. I've had it for about a month now.


If not having problems with the current version, would it be worth paying $45 to upgrade to GEN5 in your opinion? Other than not locking up, any other benefits of a GEN5 USB controller?

It's likely that you USB stick has locked up. It's a common problem that the z stick series 2 experiences. You might see an improvement by using a powered USB hub. In addition, the new gen5 appears to not have that problem in my initial tests.

Alright thank you for the information. I'll try a powered USB hub and report back. Cheers

The powered hub helped for sure, but for me the system still needs rebooted after several days. Are you saying that the Gen 5 controller hasn't showed this issue at all?

I had problems with the Zstick driver. I upgraded it and the problem went away. Search for other posts from me for the details.
