Review on 🔌 TWOPAN USB and USB C Hub T1-AC: 4-Port High Speed Ports Hub for MacBook, Tablet, and Smartphone - Space Gray (Gray AC) by Sara Terry

Trying new M1 Mac Mini - doesn't seem to like storage devices. The Seagate external (powered, brand new) USB hard drive shows up when I plug the drive "live" into the hub, but it's gone after a reboot, as is the HDMI out. Disconnecting the hard drive brings USB back, and the hard drive reappears when I reconnect it to the hub. The drive works on other USB hubs and direct. The hub appears to be powering other devices (scanners, card readers) normally .I also didn't like the external DVD recorder (it didn't show up through this hub at all) but maybe the DVD drive is pretty old so I'm willing to skip it. You get what you pay for.
