Great Powered Hub Perfect for Mac Mini

Works great with my new Mac Mini M1. The 2020 Mini has a limited number of USB ports, and this hub more than meets that limit. I have a hub that connects to the Mini's Thunderbolt/USB-C port. My WD 4TB external drive and printer connect through a hub and work fine. Time Machine backup to external hard drive works great. The build quality is excellent and the aluminum body is solid. The fact that each USB port is powered is a huge plus. The on/off buttons with activation indicators are a great feature. An SD card reader works well too as an added bonus. However, it's very light and tends to slosh around easily on a table if not careful, but I think it's aimed at portable users on the go. All in all a great hub, especially for the new Mac Mini.
