    External USB-C drive that's also a Hub

    CalDigit's AV Pro 2 apparently also acts as a USB 3 hub, which is pretty handy considering I have a 2016 rMBP. Are there any other drives out there that do this? I'm in the market for a Time Machine backup drive and I'd love to know what my options are. Thanks in advance!

    USB-C Hub / Adapter charging capabilities - recommendations?

    Dear forum, I know there is a USB-C adapter super thread... but my question is a bit more specific, I hope it's justified. My apologies if its not. I owned a HooToo Shuttle with HDMI, 3 USB3.0 and SD card slot and a SATECHI Aluminium Slim adapter with 2 USB3.0 and HDMI. They both have a USB-C...

    Thunderbolt 1/2 to USB 3.0 Hub (not USB-C)

    Got an older Mac that I want to hook some newer devices up to. I've only seen a couple of adapters and they only added one USB 3.0 type A port for around $75. Anybody know of some cheaper adapters/hubs? P.S. Why are these things so rare and expensive?

    Will HomeKit commands work with no hub at home?

    If I were to take my iPhone and iPad (used as HomeKit hub) on vacation with me, will the current events setup within the Home App continue to work or does this require a hub to be inside the house. I know that remote control will not work without the hub.

    Questions about USB-IF Certified charging adapters/bricks and passthrough hubs

    So I wanted a second charge cable that was shorter than the OEM Apple one, but was also braided so that it holds up to mobile usage over time. Finding one that was safe for the MacBook was quite easy, as this model is USB-IF certified and Nathan-K approved, (and if I ever get a 15-inch MBP TB...

    MBP USB Port stopped working-options?

    My Mid-2014 MacBook Pro Retina's right USB port stopped working. I tried the SMC reset and the NVRAM reset. It seems the only thing left to do would be to replace the logic board which is a $300ish job. I don't want to that and I'd like to keep this laptop around for longer so I'm thinking I can...
