Mac Mini M1 (Apple Silicon) ICY BOX 4 Port USB Type-C Hub - Random Shutdowns

I connected 2 La Cie d2 professional hard drives via the ICY BOX 4 Port USB Type-C Hub. This resulted in random shutdowns of the Mac Mini M1 and automatic self restarts. Then the message: "computer shut down because of a problem" appeared.

Connecting the LaCie d2 pro directly to the UBS C socket solved the problem.

But I need more USB C sockets.

Will this work?

Hey there dr. meguro,

We understand you were experiencing issues with a USB hub, and are now wanting to confirm compatibility with a different hub. We'll be happy to help point you in the right direction.

For this, we'd recommend contacting the manufacturer to confirm compatibility. You can find their page here: Sitecom
