SatechiMac Mini M4 Hub & Stand with NVMe SSD Enclosure, Dock with 2 USB-A Up to 10Gbps Ports, USB-A Data Port, SD Card Reader for Mac Mini M4, M4 Pro - Silver

This little hub is perfect device to add the extra storage and connectivity which is missing from the MAC mini. You can add extra storage move ssd reading the documentation has been tested 4TB but they believe it can go to 8tb but has not been tested or bench marked.The only thing for me if if it could have some USB and speaker point at the back. However this is just my preference. I have brought a 2TB SSD.’fitted all my required devices to it and with a built in memory SD reserve attaching another port.The price, well for what it dose, with very good build quality I would say well worth the money, and looks good with the Mac, without interference of the Mac performance

I bought this on the basis of a you tube computer geek recommendation. No issues with it yet. Installed 2gb NVME ssd and that’s caused no issues. Upload of info to the hard drive has been awesomely fast. It has a very useful card drive on the front along with a couple of fast usb A ports. Very pleased so far after two weeks of use.

Build quality is good and matches the MAC MINI. It offers the ability to connect older USB devices via the front ports.It's a shame it is only USB C not a Thunderbolt connection as you lose one of the three Thunderbolt ports on the MAC MINI. I have a 2TB SSD drive installed and use that for a back up using the MAC Tme Machine backup.It would have been good if there was a HDMI output at the rear as an option as you lose one of the Thunderbolt ports which could be used to drive a monitor.For my use I connect it to G-Drive Pro which has 2 Thunderbolt port so I do not lose one of the three Thunderbolt ports on the MAC MINI.Overall it is a well built base that offers USB ports for older devices, but could have been better, hence only 4 stars.I forgot to mention the cutout at the back which is good as you do not need to lift the MAC MINI up to switch it on.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Lots of people bought this with an SSD which fits in it easily...sort of... bit fiddly with the heat strip. This increase Macmini from 540gb by 2TB! and it fits perfectively, looks great...

Excellent hub with inbuild SSD enclosure. I've paired it with a Samsung 990 PRO NVMe M.2 SSD, 2 TB and it works flawlessly with super fast read and write speeds. Also a bonus of having extra USB A ports and a card reader

I needed extra ports and extra storage, this provided a solution that fit with the Mac Mini perfectly. The 2TB SSD (sold separately) was simple to install. The quality is excellent, complimenting the Mac Mini. It makes turning the Mac Mini on a lot easier too.

It appears to do what was described so far.

Fits perfectly with my new Mac Mini M4. I have added a 4TB SSD to store my photo library and everything works perfectly. Great to have a SD card reader and the three USB-A ports. Quality is brilliant and could pass for an Apple product.
