  • The mini dock can connect to a USB-C® port that doesn’t support Power Delivery, but it will not pass power through the connected device

  • If you are using high-powered USB™ devices, attach a USB-C® power adapter to the power delivery port to ensure maximum performance. To avoid disruption, do not remove the power adapter while copying files.

  • We advise no more than one (1) bus-powered/portable external hard disk drive to be connected to the adapter at a time
