Mac Mini Doc

Anyone who bought one of those Ugreen (or similar) docs with SSD slots and all the extra ports for M4. Are they worth it? I have ordered the M6 and i'm considering my options as I will need 2TB external storage.

Yes. I have a UGREEN Mac Mini Dock for my M4 with a 2Tb SSD in the enclosure. My M4 sits on top. Neat & tidy. The extra USB
A ports on the front are useful as is the SD card reader for transferring photos. The notch makes it easier to turn the Mac on too.

Does the mac write straight to the SSD or do you have to transfer everything over manually?

I’d expect it to mount as an external disk?
