Whats Included

HyperDrive VIPER 10-in-2 USB-C Hub for MacBook Pro & MacBook Air

Q: Will this Usb hub work with the new MacBook M1 2020?

A: Yes, that’s what I’m currently using it for. It was really one of the only products that worked for this use.

Q: Is this expected to be compatible with the new 13-inch MBP with the M1 chip?

A: This is a correction to my previous answer in which I stated the hub will not work with the M1 Air. The hub DOES work. In reading other discussion boards, I learned that Apple has physically tightened their USB-C jacks to make it harder for device cables to disconnect accidentally. Sure enough, I noticed a small gap between the twin USB-C plug and the side of the Air. I gave the plug a more forceful push... there was a click... and everything plugged into the hub started working. Since comments here apparently cannot be edited or deleted once submitted, I am adding this correction.

Q: Will this support two external monitors on a 2020 Macbook Pro 13 inch? Thanks.

A: The previous answer is incorrect. The new M1 Macbook only supports 1 external monitor. Even though this dock has two HDMI outputs, only one will work at a time. I unfortunately read this exact answer and went out and bought this device to end up disappointed. What you can do to get around this is to get a usb to HDMI adapter, and utilize display link technology to get a second external monitor.

Q: Does this come with the power pass through?

A: Yes, it does have power pass through. My MacBook Air M1's power supply plugs into the hub, and the hub's dual USB-C plugs transfer power when plugged into the computer. One thing to note: Apple has physically tightened their USB-C jacks to make it harder for device cables to disconnect accidentally. The first time I used the hub, it did not seem to be working. Eventually, I noticed a small gap between the twin USB-C plug and the side of the Air. I gave the plug a more forceful push... there was a click... and everything plugged into the hub came on.

Q: Does this dock support two monitors? I have the 2019 Mac book pro 13”. I have read that it does and does not...I would like to be set up to run two additional monitors using my Mac as a third with wireless keyboard and mouse, any help would be appreciated

A: It will for an intel based chip but not for M1 based

Q: Big Sur is not supporting most of the multiple display hubs and docks, does this one works with macOS Big Sur?

A: Yes, the Hyper 10-in-2 hub works fine with my new M1 MacBook Air running Big Sur iOS. However, the twin USB-C jacks on the air have been redesigned to offer a tighter fit to prevent external devices from coming unplugged accidentally. Make sure the hub's plug sits flush against the side of the machine as in the attached photo.

Q: Can I keep it plugged in all the time? Does it matter if it gets hot?

A: It only warms up after running a HDD drive on it for long periods of time transferring data

Q: Is this compatible with the new 2021 16" MacBook Pro that has the MagSafe 3 power port? I need to be able to use the hub while my laptop is being charged. Thanks for your input!

A: Yes, it is... I have a new 2021 16" MacBook M1 Pro Max and it works like a dream

Great MacBook Hub!
Great USB-C hub. I was using an Apple USB dongle for an iPad but it did not provide enough power to be reliable. This hub connects to two USB-c ports on the left side of my M2 MacBook and works reliably. The only reason I take a star off because the housing holding the two usb-c connectors could be slimmer. I have to remove my protector case for my MacBook to use this hub.

A must-have for any MacBook
So... the first one I owned lasted a week before one of the HDMI ports stopped working . I’m on my second one now and so far so good. I generally use all the ports at the same time and it works fine, it does get a little hot.. Just remember to unplug it after using it or you’ll have issues when you wake your computer up. (for some reason my connected hard drives hang)

GREAT with M1 Macbook Air/Big Sur!
The Hyper Viper 10-in-2 hub did not work the first time I plugged it in to my new M1 MacBook Air with Big Sur iOS. Or, at least, I THOUGHT I had plugged it in. In reading other discussion boards, I learned that Apple has physically tightened their USB-C jacks to make it harder for device cables to disconnect accidentally. Sure enough, I noticed a small gap between the twin USB-C plug and the side of the Air. I gave the plug a more forceful push... there was a click... and everything plugged into the hub started working. The plug needs to sit flush against the side of the computer, as in the attached photo. 5 stars. Excellent product!
