UGREENMac mini M4 Dock and Stand DP Hub for Mac mini M4 and M4 Pro 2024 with M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure, 4K144Hz DP,10G USB A/C, SD/TF, Audio

I really love this dock so far. It works well, it doesn't make my Mac's heating issues worse. Because I actually carry my Mac Mini around from home to office, it makes it very easy to bring it to my office and plug in one or two plugs and I'm set. I'm not using the M.2 drive slot, but I'm glad that's an option if I need more storage. I would love it more if I didn't have to take my Mac Mini back and forth, but at least it makes it much easier to do so. It is well designed; it looks cohesive with my mac, and it feels sturdy. It also perfectly fits the mac without stifling its ability to exhaust. The DisplayPort out absolutely supports 4K at least at 60Hz, which is a good plus. (I can't speak for higher resolutions or refresh rates because that's the limit of my monitor.)One thing I would have loved is the addition of an ethernet port (the wifi in my office kind of sucks and there's nothing I can really do about it), but I was able to solve that by using a USB-C ethernet adapter. Either that or I would have liked another HDMI port. Additionally, I was originally looking for an HDMI version of this, but it doesn't seem like there is a variant of this one like that. I am planning on also trying this out with a second monitor to see how well it holds up, but it also only has one DisplayPort out, so I will either have to use the HDMI out on the Mac Mini or one of the thunderbolt ports to HDMI.

Great value as a home for fast NVME storage and more interfaces. I like that it it has slots for SD and microSD(labeled as 'TF') cards. I Installed a 2TB Samsung card to give me a place to put my photos library and some other large folders that were starting to fill the 256GB internal disk on my M4 Mac Mini. There's a cutout on the back left corner to allow easy access the Mac Mini power button. Note that the original package does not include an NVMe card, but will accept cards of all sizes.

Pros:• Great match with Mac Mini design• SSD slot up to 8 TB, fast transfers• Ample USB‑A/C ports + SD card reader• Solid buildCons:• Occupies 2 Thunderbolt ports• Only one DisplayPort monitor• Occasional audio noise when off• SSD speeds capped at 10 Gbps

So far so good. The additional USBC and USBA plugs with mini card readers is great because the mac mini doesn’t have enough slots. It’s lightweight and has a nice cut away to easily access the power button on the mac mini. Light and easy to use.

The media could not be loaded. So far it's pretty good. Really nice and easy setup, literally just plug and play. Sadly, it does take up 2 USB-C slots on the back, including the Thunderbolt, but makes up for it with the DisplayPort, SD slots, and 10Gbps USB A slots on the front. My only complaint so far is that if I plug my speakers into the back one, so that it's hidden there is a slight hum/noise, which was really annoying, and I now have to use the aux cable on the front of the Mac, which defeats the purpose. Everything is working as it should so far. I still need to install an SSD, but will update on that once I do, and once I have used it a bit more!

Works perfectly and I love the form factor. Expands my work station without adding unnecessary clutter.I have heard several report of people having WiFi issues with it but I'm experiencing now issues like hat whatsoever. I have the NVMe SSD installed, and it works perfectly! I run several programs right from it and some video games too with no perceived issues or slow down. Really great product and value for the price!WIll update this after a few months of use

I simply can not recommend this hub, if you bought this thinking you could use it for the displayport slot and nvme and usb ports, you would sadly be disappointed. Even though it takes up 2 of your 40gbps thunderbolt ports. It has a total bandwidth of 10gbps. This means if you are using a high fps 4k monitor, your nvme and usb ports will be disabled or it will cause your monitor to disconnect. It also does noticeably lower your wifi connection speed due to being right by the antenna. if you only want this for the usb ports and nvme slot, it will work fine but it takes up 2 thunderbolt ports which isn't worth the tradeoff. stick to an nvme encloure and separate usb hub instead or one that only uses 1 connection. the marketing images were pretty misleading of the capabilities of this device and I have to return it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:So glad I got this. Immediately enabled me to connect a second monitor to my new Mac Mini. I'm looking forward to getting some NVME drives installed to increase the capacity of my base-model Mac.
