Description

  Product Description
 

  Built specifically for the Mac Mini M4, this 9-in-1 USB-C docking station stacks into a matching aluminum base that expands your Mac with 4K60Hz HDMI, M.2 NVMe SSD storage, dual card readers, four USB ports, and a front-accessible power button — turning a clean desktop into a full workstation through a single cable.
 


  Designed to Become Part of Your Mac Mini M4
 
  This isn't a generic docking station bolted onto your desk — it's built around the Mac Mini M4. The aluminum base shares the Mac's ~127 × 127 mm footprint and sits directly beneath it, so the two read as a single, clean unit instead of a computer plus a tangle of dongles. The metal housing matches the look and feel of the Mac itself.
 
  Add the Storage Apple Charges a Premium For
 
  Upgrading storage at purchase is one of the most expensive boxes to tick on a Mac Mini M4. The built-in M.2 NVMe slot lets you add your own drive instead — supporting 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 sizes and capacities up to 8TB. Install the drive once with the included screwdriver and screws, and your Mac gains a high-speed storage volume at a fraction of the upgrade cost.


  A Power Button You Can Actually Reach
 
  The Mac Mini M4's own power button lives on the underside of the chassis, which means tilting or lifting the machine every time you want to power it on. This docking station relocates power control to an accessible front button, so turning your Mac on and off is finally a one-tap action.
 
  One Cable, Nine Connections
 
  A single USB-C cable to your Mac carries everything: a 4K@60Hz HDMI display, three USB-A ports and one USB-C port for keyboards, mice, wireless receivers and drives, plus SD and MicroSD/TF card readers for fast offloads from cameras and devices. The data ports run at 480Mbps — sized for everyday peripherals — while high-speed work is handled by the dedicated M.2 SSD slot.
 
  Built to Run Cool and Quiet
 
  The aluminum body doubles as a heatsink, and the unit is engineered for low surface temperatures under full load, ESD protection (contact ±4KV / air ±8KV), and near-silent operation (≤30dB). It's a desktop fixture meant to run all day without drawing attention.

FAQ
  Q1: Will this docking station charge my Mac Mini M4?
  A1: No. The included PD30W power supply powers the docking station and its connected devices (such as the M.2 SSD and bus-powered peripherals). The Mac Mini M4 continues to use its own power supply.
 
  Q2: What kind of SSD can I install?
  A2: It accepts M.2 NVMe SSDs in 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 sizes, with capacities up to 8TB. The SSD is not hot-swappable — install it with the unit powered off.
 
  Q3: Does it really match the Mac Mini M4?
  A3: Yes. The aluminum base shares the Mac Mini M4's ~127 × 127 mm footprint and is designed to stack directly beneath it for a clean, integrated look.
 
  Q4: What's the point of the front power button?
  A4: The Mac Mini M4's own power button sits on the underside of the chassis, which is awkward to reach. This docking station relocates power control to an accessible front button.
 
  Q5: How fast are the USB-A and USB-C data ports?
  A5: They run at 480Mbps (USB 2.0), which suits keyboards, mice, wireless dongles, and similar peripherals. High-speed storage is handled by the dedicated M.2 SSD slot.
 
  Q6: Can it drive a 4K monitor?
  A6: Yes. The HDMI port outputs up to 4K at 60Hz and is backward compatible with lower resolutions and higher refresh rates such as 1080p@120Hz.
