Just thinking about my future computer purchase...whether it is the imac, mini or MBP...Is there a Hub anyone could suggest? I would be guessing I would need, USB, Thunderbolt, Cat 5 for internet hardware, displayport or whatever it's called...

That’s the one I have. It runs a little hot, but it works great so far. |

Without starting a nerd fight. I don’t rate hubs. Just get something that can run all of your connections.

One thing I learned the hard way is the USB-C format is not the same as prior USB's in that they can't be split off of one connection. They must be chained one at a time. I'm not the most technical so take this all with a grain of salt. I purchased what I thought was a dock and it did not work with thunderbolt 3 devices. I then realized that my Apollo interface had an extra port (for linking multiple Apollos/satellites) and that this port also can run my external HD. On my iMac I use one port for my secondary monitor and one for my Apollo. It's been super solid. Just took me a while to figure out I had the solution in front of me the whole time.
