Satechi has announced its new Mac mini Stand & Hub, a pint-sized hub with a card reader, a NVMe Enclosure — and which brings back USB-A ports.
Apple introduced the new M4 Mac mini in October. The diminutive desktop has shrunk even further, now with a five-by-five-inch footprint.
To welcome the new Mac mini to the lineup, Satechi has created a hub that pairs perfectly with it — the Mac mini M4 Stand & Hub.
Designed to fit neatly underneath the M4 Mac mini, Satechi’s new hub doesn’t add bulk to your desk. With its aluminum enclosure, the Mac mini M4 Stand & Hub appears to be a natural extension of your Mac.
It features three USB-A ports, allowing you to use your favorite legacy devices, flash drives, or dongles. A built-in SD card reader lets you easily transfer data to and from the Mac mini.
It also supports up to 4TB of extra space, thanks to the NVMe enclosure. Satechi says it supports most SSD sizes, including 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280, and that you’ll get 10Gbps transfer speeds.
Currently, there’s no word on pricing, though Satechi offers a similar hub for older Mac mini models that costs $100. The Mac mini M4 Stand & Hub is expected to begin shipping in Spring 2025.
Regardless of what it ends up costing, Satechi encourages customers to sign up on the Mac mini M4 Stand & Hub product page to know when it is available for purchase. Customers who enter their email will also receive a 20% discount.
