External drives plugged into this hub do not mount. They work fine when plugged directly into the computer (2018 Mac mini). Any ideas?

BEST ANSWER: Still super weird: I'm outside the refund window, so I returned it for a new one. Same thing: Thumb drives, external drives, nothing will mount when plugged into this hub. An Amazon Basics hub works normally. I'm puzzled, but I guess I'm stuck with it.

Have you tried plugging in the external power supply? You may not be getting enough power from the Mini's USB-C port to power your drives.

The hub is plugged into its power supply. That’s why I’m puzzled about it not working.

BEST ANSWER: No. It works on USB only. It comes with a power supply as well because some USB devices require additional power.

Ramit I

BEST ANSWER: The attached (non detachable) USB-C cable is approximately 11 inches long from the end of the adapter/USB-C Plug to the end of the HUB. The power cable that plugs into the adapter is much longer.

The question is asking for a Female USB-C to Male USB-C Extension Cable. The link provided points to a USB-A Cable
Did you ever find one? I don't know if Monoprice carries it, from my search.
I didn't find it on monoprice, but found a USB-C 3.1 Male To Female Extension Cable on another site that also sells Monoprice parts... not allowed to say the name, but think rainforest, if like me you want to be able to put the hub on your desk and your pc is more than 11 inches from the desk.. I think they expect this to be used for laptops more than anything else, not sure why no one considers PC use cases.

BEST ANSWER: I bought this to connect my peripherals after getting a new hp laptop that had only one usb port. I currently have a mouse and a speaker connected but occasionally use it for an external hd. It has worked flawlessly and therefore I recommend it without reservation.

Five star innovative products!
FIVE STARS. Searched all over the place for something like this, including Amazon, and could only find it here. This is amazing because it doesn't use up another of my very few USB hubs on my computer - it plugs right into the USB-C port, which I never use (well, until now). In addition, I do NOT have to use the included power supply, but I could use it if I wanted to. I actually have enough power cords coming from my desk, so I've chosen the first option. I LOVE being able to leave the USB cords plugged into the ports and when I need to charge something, just find the correct cord, plug in the device, and charge! Amazing price as well. Turned me on to this company and they look like they have excellent products all over the place! Great shipping time and packaging. Now I check here first rather than Amazon if I need something similar!

This hub works beautifully—no disconnects, fast and reliable. And it’s good looking, too. On top of that, it’s cheaper than the competitors.

Works great, one caveat...
Works like a charm on my 2018 MacBook Pro! One caveat: it only lets me run 1 usb external drive - if two are plugged in at the same time, they both lose connectivity. Other than that, this thing is great!

7-Input USB-3 output to USB-C Hub
This hub is a minimalist version of the powered USB hub that is perfect for accommodating standard USB-3 to the USB-C required for late model Powerbook Pros. I have not challenged its advertised typical USB-3 speed claims, but it has performed well for my purposes and couldn't be more convenient to pack.

Works but connections are loose
I was perfectly happy with the adapter for about 2 weeks after I started using it, but now some of the connections are loose so my bluetooth keyboard I have plugged into it stops working until I push the dongle back in place. Very annoying

Excellent port extender
Well built, excellent transfer rates. Cord length is something like 18 inches, so no problem. Only catch is that you may need to keep the power cord un-attached for some devices to be recognized. Otherwise, big thumbs up.
