“So what happens when you use the provided extension cable on a macbook? (The description mentions that it is for the iPad). Do only some connections work? I.e. Use one of the usb-c mac ports to charge it and the second for the hyperdrive connection.”

The extension is indeed made for use with an iPad because it only has one usb C port on the bottom. The main piece of this device has a double usb connection point that lines up with the dual usb C ports of the laptops.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi Luigi, Thanks for the inquiry. When testing this, if using the provided extension, you will want to run the connection to the second ports for both the hub and the MacBook Pro to ensure functions operate on the hub. This has to do with obtaining a signal for audio/video/data/and power delivery to be supplied to and from the host computer and the hub. Depending on the MacBook used and the year, it may be a different port (or either port).
