                A: The GS605 has the option of higher port capacity but overall, it is in the aesthetics and how the unit "blends" in appearance with your other peripherals. I chose the GS105 for its flat "boxy" appearance so that I could place other items on top of it. Both models are identical on a port-to-port basis.
