My charger connects to one of my MacBook’s other USB-C ports, and I use the final USB-C port for a Time Machine backup drive or anything else.

However, by the morning, I had changed my mind, and rescinded by request. I actually wrote an email that night to their customer service department expressing my disappointment and wish to return the hub. When I initially got the HyperDrive PRO, I almost immediately returned it. I could get the new mechanical keyboard I want for that! But the price might be higher if not for the 8-in-2 HyperDrive PRO USB-C hub. I’ve already purchased basic USB-C to USB-A dongles, new drive enclosures for my two Firewire hard drives, a USB-C to VGA/HDMI dongle, and the HyperDrive 8-in-2 hub. While MacBooks have never been so expensive, they’ve also never had so many attached costs. Joking aside, my purchase of this new MacBook Pro triggered many other purchases.

I’m now taking donations for my food fund. I bought a 2018 i9 MacBook Pro (review pending). If you’re a regular reader, you might know this already, but I took the plunge.
