If you suddenly find yourself lacking in Thunderbolt and/or USB-C hubs and you need to connect and daisy-chain Thunderbolt 4 monitors, hard drives, or other accessories, the HyperDrive Thunderbolt 4 Power Hub should be considered an essential addition to any home office or graphic/video design environment as it provides high-speed data connectivity and power across devices.
This hub is not exactly inexpensive. But the important thing to remember is that this is NOT simply a USB-C hub. It is a Thunderbolt 4 hub which means that it has faster throughput and more capabilities (like daisy-chaining) than traditional USB-C. It is backward compatible to support your USB-C devices, though. However, if you are a graphic or video designer looking to connect multiple 4K monitors or a single 8K monitor and perhaps a high-performance Thunderbolt hard drive, this is a great hub for your work environment. And, for laptops, the single upstream PD (Power Delivery) port can charge your device. It has a clean design and elegantly integrates into your desktop environment. And, it is truly “driver-less” so you don’t need additional software to power it. Simply plug and play!
