    Sicuramente un valido supporto, ha 3 porte usb, una presa audio, una porta usc, una per le schede video.
    Si collega sotto il MacMini. Mio marito si trova benissimo, non un ulteriore ingombro, ed anche carino da vedere. Arrivato puntuale, consigliatissimo, e grazie alla spedizione Amazon dall’esterno del pacco non si vede il contenuto, come invece a volte capita per oggetti di altrettanto valore.

    Ho acquistato questo accessorio per il nuovo Mac mini. Come tutti, il motivo quello di avere qualche porta facilmente raggiungibile in pi.

    Come hub, mi pare ben costruito. Si posiziona perfettamente alla base del Mac mini.
    Le porte USB soprattutto sono di qualit, i cavi non sono per nulla “instabili” o rimovibili per errore.

    Gli unici punti negativi sono tre:
    1. Le porte USB sono da 5GB/s e non da 10 (lo standard pi recente);
    2. Rispetto ad altri hub, questo manca di slot per un disco esterno in formato m.2;
    3. L’assenza di un alimentatore esterno.

    Come accessorio va bene, ma potrebbe essere migliorato.

    Excellent finish and appearance.

    It would have been more convenient to have USB ports at the back instead of the front of the unit, so that cables could be hidden.

    Perfectly complements the Mac mini. Brings all ports to the front, so no more fiddling around the back or contending with extra cables for external hubs. Even includes an SD card and micro SD card reader.

    Dislikes, transfer speed slows across the hub USB-c to USB-c when transferring files from a nVME SSD from 2.5Gbps plugged in the back of my mini to 800Mbps plugged in front of hub when using Blackmagic Disk Speed App.

    This is one of the best hubs for the Mac mini. I would definitely buy it again if I had to. The things that I have gripes about are:
    a) The cable in the back that connects to the back seems lopsided, I wish they thought that thru
    b) The LED light of the Mac and the LED of the Satechi Base do not align and that makes my designer OCD brain hurt.
    c) Designer rant again – I wish the silver colors matched!

    I mounted the hub on top of the Mac mini M1 because it would be awkward placing the Mac mini on top of the hub due to the Macs bottom not being flat. It would also be nice to have more USB C ports. Maybe one less usb 2.0 and 1 extra usb c port.

    I absolutely love this product. My only qualm with it is that it doesn’t come with more 3.0 ports or a built in fan as the other popular Mac Mini hubs do. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a way to use expandable storage in a way that doesn’t add clutter to your work environment.

    I bought this after reading some of the negative reviews this had got, I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to hook upland use. I had just upgraded my Mac mini 2012 to the newest model, to my surprise the Mac mini went from 4 usbs on my 2012 to only 2 usb on the 2020 model. I saw this on Amazon and boy was I glad I decided to try it out. I now have 5 usbs and my problem was solved.

    There seemed to be confusion about whether the ports on the front are powered. So I ran my track pad through a USB tester. Coming out of the hub it was 4.84V and 0.46A. For comparison I just unplugged it from the front, added an adapter and plugged it into the USB-C port coming out of the Mac Mini. That’s providing 4.99 V and 0.74A. So the total power output is lower from the hub than the thunderbolt port, but it’s enough for me to charge my keyboard and track pad.

    Its a relatively cheap dock that looks nice with the Mac mini. However, the makers of this dock show their product’s LED light matching that of the mini and it does not. Two big differences, the dock’s light is dimmer and not the same kind of white.

    I returned it because I wasn’t finding it as useful as I thought I would and found it a waste of money for my needs.

    Dopo aver valutato diversi hub per ampliare le porte del mio mac mini M1, ho scelto questo per il bellissimo design. Avevo letto tante lamentele sul fatto che si surriscaldasse e che non avesse un buon sistema di raffreddamento, ma devo dire che oramai (lo uso da un mesetto) tutto va alla grande. I nuovi mac con processore M1 scaldano pochissimo e l’hub non ne risente affatto.. lo uso costantemente e in maniera intensa con programmi di fotoritocco e video. Consigliatissimo. L’unica cosa da notare che, come fatto notare da qualcuno, disturba lievemente il segnale bluetooth di mouse e tastiera, ma insomma nulla di grave che impedisce di lavorarci.

    Ottimo ed elegante hub

    It was a great match to the Mac mini, it perfectly cradles the Mac mini M1 and perfect color match but the only reason I bought it was for the SD card readers. I wish it had more USB C lightning bolt connections in lieu of the old style USB A. The larger SD card reader slot was defective and my SD cards would keep getting jammed into the slot. The micro SD card slot works fine.

    Very good hub but with a few needed changes. I like the fact that they added a type C port and the 3.5m jack to the front which all other Mac Mini specific hubs don’t have for some odd reason. Adding a port for an external SSD and adding an extra type C port on the front (swap one of the type A’s for another type C) would make this perfect. It’s a bit overpriced but not too bad. A hub is a must have if you own a Mac Mini and the Satechi seems to be the best choice on the market right now.

    Bought this for the new M1 Mac Mini as it has next to no ports. The dock is the darker colour designed for the previous Intel Mac Mini but it does fit exactly, however the short docking cable does not perfectly align with the M1’s USBC port, but it is long enough to reach comfortably without causing any issues.
    All the ports work well, it feels like a premium product and critically for me, it takes up no extra space on your desk.
    All Mac mini’s should come with one of these as standard in my opinion.

    An outstanding little bit of kit that has come in really handy with the new Mac mini M1.

    Great hub to marry with your 2018+ Mac Mini, has just the I/O you need on the front, colour match with my 2018 mac mini isn’t exact but still I like the finish.

    The next version of this could be outstanding with a few tweaks, powered ports maybe, a location for a SSD or M2 storage like this one:
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Enclosure-AGPTEK-Docking-Station-Readers-Space-Gray/dp/B087F3JFYQ/ref=sr_1_3?crid=232R5Y9S1SEQU&dchild=1&keywords=mac+mini+hub+with+hard+drive&qid=1608403456&sprefix=mac+mini+hub%2Caps%2C153&sr=8-3

    Some people are saying their Minis are getting hot when using this dock but I’ve been using the dock with the Mac Mini base plate removed to help airflow and its been staying cool, Maybe the next version of this dock could attach to the Mac Mini in the same way the base plate does, just a thought.

    Excellent Hub, could be even better . . .

    Color does not bother me it’s close but all USB inputs and SD card reader are just what I needed. About the heat it’s easy to get an app for that. I use Mac Fan Control and purchased the pro version that I can customize my fan settings. So no heat issues. The mini get’s hot on intense use anyway. I tried the AGPTEK and beside having a slow hard drive interface all the inputs are slow and the quality is poor.

It works well! 3.5mm jack port is recognized without issue. The USB ports are all working. It also gives an elegant touch to the Mac mini on top of keeping the unit cooler by the presence of air vents.

    USB A ports able to charge my keychron k2 although advertised as unable to charge.
    LED status light is not visible during day time especially when you not looking at it from the front angle.
    FAN is so quiet I wonder if it is spinning at all. Didn’t care since my Mac mini runs cool most of the time.

    Not cheap, but solidly built out of matching space grey aluminium and nestling neatly beneath my Mac mini, it gives me access to three USB-A ports, a USB-C port, headphone jack and two SD card slots, while allowing me to hide the Mac mini ports (power, ethernet etc) around the back.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThis is a must if you have a 2018 or 2020 Mac Mini. It’s so easy just plug the USBC cable from the hub into one of the USBC sockets at the back of the Mac, place the Mac on top and yr good to go, all those extra ports on the front instead of the back. Their not powered so you can’t charge things their just for data but that’s fine for me. Some reviewers say they have had issues I’ve had none. I’m running Mojave and have magic 2 keyboard and mouse and have experienced zero disconnections. The colour matching is not exact but it’s so close it’s hardly worth mentioning. The power led is not as bright as the one on the Mac but enough so you know it’s on and it really looks the part. It’s well worth the money and as far as hubs go it’s the best one for the Mac Mini. If you want a hub that provides the convenience of front connectivity and cosmetically makes yr Mac look like it should have been there in the first place this is for you.

    It would have been nice to have a power source to charge other electronics and possibly a fan for cooling purposes, if it’s quite or possible to turn off. Aside from that it’s solid hub.

    Lo uso quotidianamente soprattutto per leggere SD dalla fotocamera e funziona senza problemi.
    Solamente non ho notato un reale vantaggio nel “raffreddamento”: tra le caratteristiche leggevo di una migliore dissipazione del calore, ma le temperature sono invariate.
    La porta USB-C non supporta la tecnologia Thunderbolt ma funziona benissimo per un collegamento di pendrive o dispositivi con cavo USB-C.

    Golden Review Award: 17 From Our UsersThis is a lightweight unit that just sits under your Mac Mini.

    I bought a new Mini early 2020. It has 4 USB-C and 2 USB 3 ports around the back. It doesn’t take much effort in a desktop environment to fill those up these days. Reaching around the back is not hard (the Mini is “mini” after all) but all the cables are so close to each other.

    This hub takes up just one USB-C connector at the back and then gives you 1 x USB-C, 3 x USB 3, 1 x headphone port, 1 x micro SD and 1 x SD slot in a handy, front-mounted location.

    There is also a little white LED in a similar location to the one on the Mac Mini – but it’s not easy to see from anything but a head-on angle.

    The latest Mac Mini computers tend to run hot. The CPUs they’re using love running up to 80+ degrees. I’ve tweaked my fan settings to try and head-off such thermal nastiness and have not found this Satechi hub to add to the thermal problems. It has a clear flow of air through the hub to the inlets at the bottom of the Mini. This was my main worry prior to buying the hub – but I’ve not noticed the Mini behaving any differently with regards to the heat of the CPU/unit.

    It’s not the most affordable accessory but it looks great and provides very handy access to ports. If you regularly want to plug in USB drives or plug in an iPad via USB-C then I recommend taking a look at this hub to make your life more fulfilled (OK, well, it’s handy).

It’s a bit pricey but worth it. The only negative thing is that would have been nice to have is the USB ports do not support charging things like your mouse or your phone., but is great for other functions. Use one of the rear Usb’s on the Mini for device charging.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI really like this hub. It covers all the needs that I bought it for, mainly having access to ports on the front and adding card readers to my 2020 Mac mini. It took me a while to get this as it was constantly out of stock, so when amazon had it back complete with a 5 voucher I snapped it up. I think this is the best looking and best functional hub for the Mac Mini. I do feel let down by the colour match tho. It is a slightly lighter grey to the Mac as can be seen in the photo which is such a shame and for this reason i have dropped a star as I love the look of my mac and for the price of this hub i expected a perfect match.

    Performance wise it ticks all the boxes. All the ports are working fine and as fast as I need. Just be aware that when inserting an SD card that you place it in upside down. The manufacturer claim that this hub is not designed for charging or giving power but I have found that it charges my apple Watch no problem and it also powers and charges my desktop USB fan, so that’s a bonus for me.

    Great design and functionality let down by colour match

    This add-on is perfect for bringing port access to the front of my new late 2018 Mini. I would have liked the feet to a bit bigger (taller) so you could actually get a good finger grip on the various connections. A big improvement over the traditional standalone hub. It does not lock onto the mini, so the unit cannot be placed on edge.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersDevo dire che molto utile. Nel mio caso unico visto (come da foto) il posto che deve occupare. Per il riscaldamento, onde evitare problemi ho adottato una semplicissima soluzione. Messi spessori in silicone tra le parti. Esteticamente bruttino ma surriscaldamento bye bye. ATTENZIONE : Sulle porte USB anteriore non c’ abbastanza corrente per pilotare devices “avidi”; per capirci, ci ho attaccato il lettore CD della Apple ma a Catalina non piacuto per niente. Non riesce a gestirlo. Attaccato su porta posteriore tutto OK. Secondo me normale che sia cos Regolatevi di conseguenza prima dell’acquisto sull’uso che dovrete farne. Pennetta USB ok – Devices “motorizzati” NO.

    Molto utile e pratico - Scelta intelligente (del costruttore).

    This is great. Gives me extra ports. The device footprint is exactly the same as the Mac Mini 2018. Highly recommended. It clears my desk of the other USB hub I had.

    Looks very good sat under the Mac. Does exactly what you’d expect. If I had to change one existing feature, I’d make the feet more resistant to slipping. On my desk, when you try to insert a USB cable/key you need to hold the top of the Mac to stop the whole thing slipping around. Looking forward to an updated version with the ability to add an SSD…that would be just wonderful 🙂

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersEl producto es ideal para el mac mini 2018. Te permite tener los puertos en la parte delantera, lo cual se agradece mucho. Pero habra sido perfecto si la base tuviese algn PCIe interno para conectar discos SSD M2 y dotar al mac de ms capacidad. A ver si para la prxima renovacin de la base lo implementan.

    Very cool product, keeps everything for my Mac-mini organized and neat looking. The quality so far seems very good.

    Excellent design, complementary to the MacMini profile. The ports are conveniently located at the front of the unit and installation was simple with a single connection to the MacMini at the rear with the MacMini cradled on the hub.
    Very convenient functional and attractive with a ‘built in’ look.

    Got one for my 2018 Mini. Mainly for the front facing audio input. Allows me to have external speakers attached using the standard audio port on the Mini, and still use a headset when I choose. Without having to plug anything in. The Mini auto detects the headphones now, so I don’t even have to change settings.

    But…. My unit came with loose USB ports. Not enough retention when you plug in a cable. Cables would come out with minimum tug. A couple of quick emails to Support, and verification of purchase, a replacement unit was sent right away. Free postage both ways.

    Now if they can only get the color to match the current Mac Mini.

    I’d seen other reviews writing about issues with interaction with the bluetooth keyboard/mouse and also the colour not matching. For me these were not issues. I use the apple keyboard and mouse without issue, and the colour match is perfect! It looks fantastic and works so well. Having card slots on the front is so helpful along with high speed USB etc for pulling content on cameras etc.

    Easy to connect the finish matches the Mac mini (current version) and offers useful ports on the front.

    All in all, somewhat expensive, but does the job well.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersDer Hub wirkt sehr Edel und passt auch perfekt, abgesehen von der Farbe. Im groen und ganzen macht er was er soll, nur halt nicht perfekt. Mein Mini wurde 5-10 Grad Wrmer im normalen Betrieb. Hab dann kleine Gummipuffer untergelegt und jetzt klappt es auch mit der Wrme und die Optik leidet auch nicht.

    Bei einer SanDisk Ultra Mico SDXC A2 schafft er, Write 62.8MB/s — Read 90.4 MB/s Der Micro SD Karten Slot ist schlecht gelst, die Karte sitzt etwas zu tief im Hub und geht daher sehr schwer wieder raus. Micro SD Karte zeigt nach oben.
    Der SD Karten Slot wurde perfekt umgesetzt, mal abgesehen davon, dass die Karte nach unten zeigt. Beim SD Karten Slot steht die Karte etwas raus, einstecken und entfernen der Karte geht super.
    Man kann beide SD Karten gleichzeitig nutzen.

    Eine USB-C SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD direkt am Mini angeschlossen schafft 473MB/s Write, 528MB/s Read. Die gleiche Festplatte am USB-C Anschluss des Hubs 374MB/s Write, 413MB/s Read.
    Leider geht mein Ipad Pro ber den Anschluss weder zu Laden, was ja noch ok wre, noch ist es fr Datenaustausch zu gebrauchen. Mit Adapter Kabel USB-A auf USB-c geht dann der Datenaustausch. Warum geht es nicht am USB-C Anschluss?

    Der USB-C Stecker vorne sitz fest, was man von den USB-A Anschlsse nicht behaupten kann. Die Stecker gehen sehr leicht rein und raus, ist nicht sehr vertrauenswrdig, ist aber angenehm beim Anstecken. Hatte bisher keinen Datenverlust und hab schon einiges damit gemacht. Mein Iphone X, Garmin Fenix 5 und eine GoPro Hero 8 kann ich am USB A Anschluss Laden.

    USB Anschlsse sind 3.0 Wird eine USB 3.0 Festplatte angeschlossen wird es in der Systemsteuerung auch so angezeigt. Iphone am USB Anschluss ist halt nur USB 2.0

    Bin zufrieden!

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersGreat idea, well executed product, matches my mac mini perfectly. Adds back all the ports that my mac needs. I’m very happy with it. Only flaw is that the SD card needs to be inserted in upside down, which is a strange design choice and I couldn’t find anywhere in the manual that states that.

    Edit: upon reading other reviews, I can say that the Mac mini seems to run hotter when using this hub. I can’t see how the vents on this thing improve airflow compared to standalone. I plan to mod this thing and widen the vents to improve the air circulation.
    Another complaint others have made is Bluetooth interference. Inside the hub is a thick metal plate bolted right in the centre. I have no idea what it does apart from giving the hub some weight. Perhaps it is causing signal attenuation?
    One last thing, the USB ports are a bit loose. I would have liked it a bit firmer. The USB-C and audio ports seem fine though.

    It’s a natural extension of the 2018 Mac Mini. I got it for the multiple USB ports, Card Reader and USB C ports. The fit and finish is very close to the Mini’s footprint. In my opinion, it’s good value for the money.

    I spotted this on amazon at the bottom of the page whilst looking at another product and i’m so glad i did i purchased it and got it delivered the next day, i have a 2018 space grey mac mini and it’s frustrating trying to fiddle on to find a usb port at the back of it when i plug my iphone in or usb stick etc and now this stylish product looks as stunning as my mac mini and now it’s so much easier to plug my iphone in and my usb sticks and SD cards etc, if you have a mac mini 2018 then do not hesitate in purchasing this product you will not be disappointed

    Main use extra USB ports which face out from the front of the Mac Mini instead of fiddling around at the rear.
    2019 Mac Minis do not have a card reader, this unit does, great bonus.

    Great little dock for the Mac mini!

    Pro’s
    -form factor. Blends in with the shape of the mini and everything fit together perfectly. OEM feel
    -adds much needed front i/o to my Mac mini set up. Especially the sad card reader

    Cons
    – the colour is a bit off and the power led is quite dim
    -no charging which is a bit of a bummer
    -I wish it had a 2.5 or nvme drive bay, that really would have made this thing perfect.

    Golden Review Award: 34 From Our UsersI like this product a lot!
    It’s unobtrusive and matches the Mac Mini look and aesthetic very well.
    It gives the Mac Mini additional legacy ports and places these ports at the front of the device so that you don’t have to go fiddling around at the back of your Mac to connect devices.
    It cuts down of the number of dongles that I need to use as it includes a 3 USB-A and 1 USB-C ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a couple of micro/SD card readers.
    The ventilation on the devices is well thought out and allows airflow around the bottom of the Mac Mini.
    Overall, I am very happy with the device HOWEVER none of the ports are powered. The ports are only for data. There is no thunderbolt 3 support, and this means that powering or charging devices is not possible with this hub. This is a shame because in every other way this product is great.

    Great product with one shortcomming

    It makes life easier, the connections are more accessible. It’s the impossibility of connecting an iPad Pro through the USB-C that I dislike.

    Works great with the Mac mini. The only negative is that the SD card goes in upside down which feels slightly unnatural.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersEndlich gibt es diesen Hub auch ber Amazon.de zu kaufen!
    Sehr sauber verarbeitet und macht sich wirklich gut unter meinem Mac mini!
    EMPFEHLUNG!!!

    Zwei Dinge die eventuell etwas stren knnten:
    1.
    Die Ports liefern KEINE Stromversorgung – das steht aber in der Artikelbeschreibung!
    Vorteil: es wird kein Stromkabel bentigt.

    2.
    Die Farbe ist nicht 100% exakt die Selbe wie diese des Minis – aber nur minimal!

    Diese zwei Punkte – eigentlich ja nur einer – fhren deshalb bei mir zu keinen Punktabzgen!

    Wer noch berlegt – KAUFEN!
    Ausgepackt – angeschlossen – luft – Freude!
    Ein echter Eyecatcher!
