Satechi Previews Mac Mini Hub With SD Card Slot, Three USB-A Ports, and Up to 4TB Storage Slot

[Confused-User]

No, Im not reading it wrong.

Duh.

Who says I do?

Sigh. To repeat:

Those are *maximum speeds*. They're not fixed allocations. (Which should have been obvious to you, as they add up to well over 40gbps.)

I've boldfaced the key point. If you're not capable of understanding this, well, I can't help that.

I wonder if there would be a market for a superdrive like drive to fit underneath too... with blu-ray support, you'd have about 3.5mm clearance on either side of a cd so would be tight

Found a picture of mine's box that I recently made also for a thread here because it wasn't on Amazon anymore:

Can you point me/us to the model of the TV NVMe enclosure and NVMe stick you use?

Enclosure: https://amzn.eu/d/9Ys9fHA - Orico TB3
Disk 1: https://amzn.eu/d/629vQYY - WD SN770
Disk 2: https://amzn.eu/d/bcBZu5O - Samsung 980 Pro

USB 4 enclosure: https://amzn.eu/d/1m3nJaI - Ugreen

The Orico generally performs better in sustained operation than the Ugreen enclosure. I've swapped the drives between the caddies for multiple tests. The Ugreen is still bloody quick, bit reliably performant is better I reckon.
