No issues here, have used a SON approx 14000km (sold as I went to disc) SP PD-8 disc, it's replacement approx 3000km and on another bike a Shimano T785 approx 3000km, no issues with any of them, wouldn't get the specific model of Shimano again, as it's a little heavy, but Shimano have introduced new hubs (inc the T785-1D) which are significantly lighter since I got mine, and would consider these.
Not used a Sanyo hub, but not sure how you could put any of the others in the wrong way round, as the connectors are always on the RHS.
