I have found certain USB 3 devices and hubs interfere badly with the Magic Mouse and occasionally the KB (causing lost connections).
I bought a new mini last week and I thought I had a hardware problem, Magic Mouse was almost impossible to use.
Then I read up on how USB 3 can sometimes seriously interfere with bluetooth.
BTW, I am using the far left USB A socket on the mini. As yet no TB/USB 3 devices.
I started unplugging USB 3 devices, nothing attached, mouse behaves normal!
First off my TM drive is USB 3, connected direct to mini, it interferes with mouse, it runs off the USB A socket on mini.
Belkin USB 3 hub, this interferes with or without devices attached. It runs off the same USB A socket.
Then I tried my super el cheapo, Chinese knockoff USB 3 hub, using the USB A socket.......ZERO interference, even with the TM drive and other drives attached.
Quite a bizarre outcome. The Belkin cable looks much beefier than the cheapo hub cable. I have read that cables need to be high grade and well shielded.
So what gives? I'd like to get the Caldigit TS3, but wary of spending a lot of $$ on something that might interfere.
Anyone has a mini and the Calgit?
Clearly this is not especially an Apple hardware issue.
Hoping this has helped others.
