Minisopuru Mac mini Dock Support M.2 NVMe/SATA SSD, 5 in 1 Mac mini Hub & Mac mini Stand with 2 * 10Gbps USB C Data, TF& SD, M.2 SSD Enclosure(Not Included SSD)

I used this with a m1 Mac mini for a while but upgraded to a m4 Mac mini late last year so haven't turned on the old system since. I liked a lot about the hub. The nvme slot was easily accessed and was recognized right away. I didn't notice any disconnects or troubles of any type with whatever random 1tb wd black SSD I put in it. Speed was just fine for me as I just used it for document storage. I don't edit media on the hub's SSD or transfer my file system to it or anything. The various ports worked and I appreciated everything it offered especially the microSD slot. I only wish it was USB4 compliant but that would have drove up the price. It would have been nice if it offered a DP port but I understand its limitations. Overall it worked as a low end solution.

This Mac Mini Hub matches the Mac Mini M1 perfectly. It’s made of the same type of material. It’s easy to feel and see the quality. I like the design; extra ports are all in the front. I use a triple display dock, so I plugged this Mac Mini Dock into my existing Docking Station. I also use a USB Switch to toggle power to either the PC or Mac. I had an extra M.2 2280 hard drive and I installed this into the Mac Mini Hub. The drive was easy to install as the cover under the hub is held on by a simple latch and magnet at the opposite end. This little drive holds backup files and now both my PC and Mac Mini have access to them. A little rubber plug acts as the screw to hold the drive securely in place. Nice idea as this also limits any vibration if the hub is moved. This worked flawlessly. No question though on the look, performance, and the quality of the product.

Even though it's made in China... it does what they said it does and don't worry about bad users "sheet", if you need instructions to hook it up you shouldn't be playing with computers yet.

I really like this stand/hub. The NVMe support is fantastic, and it performs as well as its RTL9210B-CG chipset will allow it to, which is honestly pretty good.That said, it is somewhat speed limited. This is USB-C, and only 10gbit at that, so USB 3.2, essentially. This means with the protocol overhead, you're going to get ~950MB/sec max on M.2 NVMe drives. You'll also only get 10g USB-C ports up front.The """worst""" part is the relatively slow SD card slots, which get about 90MB/sec since they're only UHS-I.That said, it's exactly what it says on the tin and nothing more. It's a fantastic color-matched stand, holds my mac mini securely, gives me extra USB ports, hides a time machine drive, and gives me the SD card slots I've always wanted on the front of my mac mini while also making the rear ports significantly more accessible. This is a fantastic deal for the price.I would buy this for 3x the price with the following changes:1. Thunderbolt 4 for uplink2. M.2 NVMe with 4 PCIe4 lanes via Thunderbolt 43. 2x Thunderbolt or USB 4 ports up front4. UHS-III SD card slots5. A Thunderbolt input port rather than a fixed wired cable, plugging into the rear6. 2-4 USB A 3.2 ports out backThese would make this already pretty great dock absolutely incredible, as the main issue holding it back from being amazing is the bandwidth starvation of USB-C 10gbit.

Fast shipping and awesome quality…added a 1tb nvme stick and was recognized by my Mac mini with no problems. Highly recommend.

It felt like it took forever researching and figuring out which hub would be best for my M2 mini that had an SSD enclosure that supported NVMe. I didn’t want to do a vertical hub initially so I ordered some others that were not vertical (the Minisopuru one worked fine but kept sliding when I plugged things in). I was nervous about this, not having an external power supply, but this actually seems to integrate better (Instead of paying for the larger capacity Mini I decided to add storage this way but wanted it to function like it was built in). I have had zero issues running a 4TB crucial NVMe, and occasionally plugging in external drives and peripherals. This hub works seamlessly and is fantastic. I do still love the look of the stacked hubs and wish Minisopuru would make a version of this that was flat and shaped to stay in place on the Mini like the Satechi hub, but until then this is the best option I found.

I got this for my M2 Mac mini because it holds it vertically and takes up less desk space than a horizontal dock. I had a 1 TB NVMe drive that I could put in it to expand the storage of my Mac. Unfortunately, the dock can't do much but hold the Mac. The NVMe drive spontaneously dismounts whenever copying or reading files. The SD card slots worked for a bit, but now they do the same thing. Lastly, it only has USB-C ports on the front, so if you want to connect anything with USB-A, you have to go around to the back of the Mac. So, it's a stand. That's it. Don't expect more.

The problem with the M2 Mac Mini is the dearth of expansion opportunities. The solution is an expansion dock, and this is a very good solution for this particular model. In addition to the extra ports, it has a space to install an M2 NVME SSD. This saves the port that an external SSD would take up and keeps your desktop neater. All the ports worked well and the Mac Mini looks nice in the upright orientation. Nice product, good value for Mac Mini owners.
