HyperDrive: Thunderbolt 3 USB-C Hub for 2016 MacBook Pro
World’s Most Compact, Fastest 50Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 USB-C Hub for MacBook Pro. Adds HDMI, USB 3.1 x 2, microSD/SD, Thunderbolt 3 & USB-C. Unlike most USB-C dongles which still run on slow USB 3.0 (5Gb/s) speed, HyperDrive is 10X faster (50Gb/s) by using not one but two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C connections. Other Thunderbolt 3 docks are as big as a brick and nowhere as portable as the HyperDrive.
HyperDrive is the first and only hub designed to tap into two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports on the MacBook Pro for maximum bandwidth, to deliver more ports in the smallest footprint.
With HyperDrive, you get the most commonly used ports, found in preceding 2015 MacBook Pro model. This is the adapter Apple should have provided with every 2016 MacBook Pro.
Many 5Gb/s dongles have multiple ports that cannot be reliably used at the same time because of speed and bandwidth limitations. Only HyperDrive has the high 50Gb/s speed and bandwidth required for all 7 ports to be used simultaneously. Simultaneously connect HDMI, Thunderbolt 3, USB-C, microSD, SD, 2 x USB 3.1. All while charging at full speed thru HyperDrive
Compared to other dongles in the market and from the Apple Store, HyperDrive is more portable, has more features and is made of better materials. You would need multiple dongles to achieve what HyperDrive does, at a total cost much higher than HyperDrive.
Keep a HyperDrive already connected to all your devices at home or work and simply make a single, quick and easy HyperDrive connection whenever your MacBook Pro is at the desk. HyperDrive supports hot swapping/plugging so a single HyperDrive connection would instantly connect all devices already connected to the HyperDrive.
For stability, HyperDrive connects to the MacBook Pro with not one by two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports. Having two input ports also allow us to provide more speed and bandwidth (50Gb/s) to HyperDrive, allowing it to provide as many ports (7 in total, all of which can be used simultaneously) in the tiniest of spaces.
