OWCThunderbolt Hub Docking Station Grey/Black Thunderbolt 4 USB-A

Small form factor, plug and play. So far has worked very well with the latest Windows and Mac OS. Very happy.

A Very well made quality product. Works well. Excellent power supply which works on UK voltage no problem.Of note that my power supply came with a USA plug which I had to cut off and rewire with a UK plug, but the power supply is clearly labeled to confirm it is compatible with UK voltage.The transfer speed of data through this hub feels very very fast, I have not measured it precisely but in use it gives the impression it’s delivering its rated specification.

I use this with an IMac 27” to increase the number of thunderbolt ports. I use it to add an additional Dell, monitor, a Focusrite Scarlet audio interface and an external hard drive. All work flawlessly and without a problem.My only complaint is that it comes with a two pin European plug rather than a UK one so you either need an adapter, or to change the plug or the lead before you can use it. The mains adapter is also relatively enormous compared to the size of the main unit, making it a bit messy as a combination when the main is it is so sleek.I wish it were cheaper, but it does work well and solve a problem.

I was shocked with how small this is, but good things, small packages etc. The power supply is bigger. However it is solid and worked straight out of the box. Talking of the power supply it is excellent, with detachable IEC cable so I can run it from my Furman power conditioner. One thing to note is that the supplied software drivers no longer work with the Apple SuperDrive mainly due to Apple. When I queried this the support were quick, clear and helpful. All in all highly recommended.

I have two of these, all I wanted was an extra few TB ports for my Macstudio and the USB A port was a bonus.Does it do what I want? Yes mostly, the disc write speed is slower than when I connect a TB enclosure directly to the Mac which confuses me a bit, but there we go.I have USB C or TB monitors connected and one of my TB enclosures (connected in a RAID 0 with another that is connected to the Mac), the drop in speed isn't really a problem because I use the RAID for editing from and BMD 4000 plus read is more than fine and the intention for that is really to give me a 4tb drive without paying the mad Apple price. As others mentioned the connections can sometimes be a bit easy to dislodge but I happen to have little USB 4 adaptors that I use and for some reason, they don't become dislodged, go figure. I am lucky that I had some but I think it would be a pain to have an extra cost, though if you don't wiggle the thing too much you are likely fine anyway. I am more than happy with them, sure you can spend a little more and get even more connections, but like anything, get what you need. I have one connected to the other so I know have 5 extra TB ports for whatever use, plus two USB A 3s and if I am using a different machine I can pick one up and take it with me. for the price I was more than happy, just sort out the fit OWC and you would have a super product and not just a pretty good one.

Worked well for 2 years and now is completely broken. USBs not functioning at all!2 years of operation is POOR VALUE FOR MONEY!!

Like the title says. Stop looking for other docks, this works and won’t heat up so much you worry your house is going to burn down.Fast, efficient and with just enough ports to turn my MacBook into a portable music studio. Fits into a go-bag real easy.I’ve been very impressed with owc stuff recently, the build quality makes you feel less bad about the price you paid ( which is still lower than a lot of Thunderbolt 3/4 dock prices).Get this, be happy.

Great little hub supplied with huge power adaptor, never mentioned in press release articles, although all similarly priced rival products tend to do gloss over this when promoting their products? On the plus side the hub offers sufficient connectivity to extend the ports on my 2017 iMac which only has 2 Thunderbolt ports, I gain 3 using this hub allowing me to keep a couple of T7 SSDs USB-C and 5TB LaCie SDD USB-A drives connected for my photo editing and time machine backups. Installation was simple although placing it out of sight would make my workspace look more organised. Delighted with this purchase
