I need a wired keyboard (USB) with addition USB ports for mouse and thumb drive.
I have been using wireless logitech keyboard and mouse for years, but it's become unreliable.
Looking at DAS Model S (pricey) through to Perixx (cheap). Any recommendations?
I have seen earlier discussions on this topic but not this specific.

I had the DAS for almost 10 years now. Works like a charm. Still clickety, still love it.

Thanx! Just the type of info I was looking for.
I have an original IBM PC with it's clickety keyboard (but will not work on modern hardware).
I liked it alot.

I tried this approach once, but no cigar.
The IBM keyboard is one of first they made
and is probably not very standard. I might revisit though. Thanx

I'm still using an old IBM keyboard with a PS2/USB adapter. It still works great and the key labels are still crisp and it looks like new, except that the "D" and "K" key labels have slightly faded.

Yup, I’ve had a Das keyboard, cherry brown switches for more than a decade. No frills: not backlit, not programmable. It just works.

They still work - you just need a USB to PS/2 adapter - and be able to live without a Windows Key. I'm using one at work at the moment.
The only other thing is that not all USB adapters or PC USB ports are made to the same standards. I have heard of problems with cheaper USB adapters.

Das.
Every time you use it you will know where the money went. I have a 5QS and I adore it.

Are they quiet ?

They're about middling noisy as mechanical keyboards go.
I find the click satisfying, but if you're used to membrane keyboards these are significantly noisier.

It's all about the switches, really. Das Keyboard uses Cherry MX switches, of which there are different levels of clicky-ness. Das support a couple of varieties:
- Blue: very clicky
- Brown: less clicky (but still quite clicky)
I have a Das Keybaord with brown Cherrys, and I love it. It does make a fair bit of noise though, so if you really want quiet, you might be better with different switches, e.g. Cherry red. This would mean a different keyboard to Das.
Here's a good comparison of Cherry switches:

There are other switch manufacturers of course, and some are just as good, or better in some cases - I've only really looked a Cherry.

When my various Logitech wireless keyboard/mouse sets became unreliable, I tried a Logitech G413 (clicky gaming keyboard) but it has a wired connector with a cable thick and stiff enough to tow a truck with which meant things falling off the desk every time you moved it etc.
I've now switched to a G613 (also clicky) which has some programmable function keys on the left (like the original IBM function keys back before most PC users today were born, and which I much prefer to having them out of reach on the top of the keyboard).
So far it has been extremely reliable and batteries last for ages. YMMV of course!

Slightly OT, but as a general question:
I really like the clicky-part of mechanical keyboards, but they don't come in ergonomic styles, do they? If yes, please recommend!
Even the DAS keyboards are just rectangle planks with keys - which are a pain for my wrists if I use them over 4hrs/day.
I now use the Microsoft Natural Ergo 4000, but don't particularly like the switches.
any ideas?

Start another thread to garner attention to this request. I'll bet others are also on the lookout for such a keyboard.
Good luck in your search!

The Unicomp Model M doesn't have USB ports but the one I'm using now is 14 years old and still going strong. I have six in total (two still boxed) and expect to be buried with one.

I have been using mine for about 8 years now. I love it.

I get a no frills HP business line model.
For that nice clickity clack, I use Opera GX. It has motivated me to put my entire work flow in a VM with a Guacamole RDP server, so I get those nice sounds in all my work flows.
Also comes with dynamic altering background music, to complement my flow.
