Our take on the OWC 28.0TB 20.0TB HDD 8.0TB NVMe OWC miniStack STX Stackable Storage and Thunderbolt Hub Xpansion So

The OWC miniStack STX is a stackable storage hub built to sit under a Mac mini or Mac Studio. It combines a large 3.5-inch hard drive for bulk storage with an NVMe SSD bay for fast work, and adds three Thunderbolt ports so one connection to your Mac fans out to more devices and displays. It suits Mac desktop owners who want more storage and more ports without a desk full of enclosures. Against a plain external drive it costs more and is bigger, but it replaces a dock and a drive at once.

Questions and answers

Does the hard drive slow down the whole unit?
No. The hard drive and the NVMe SSD are separate drives. The SSD handles fast tasks like 4K editing, while the hard drive is for backups and bulk files.
How many devices can I connect through it?
OWC rates it for a mix of up to five Thunderbolt devices, three USB devices and two displays. That is in addition to the drives inside.
Can it charge my laptop?
Yes. It provides up to 96W of charging power over Thunderbolt or USB-C, enough for most Mac notebooks.
Will it fit under a Mac mini or Mac Studio?
It is designed as a stackable base for those desktops, matching their footprint so the Mac sits on top.
Is it quiet enough for a desk?
OWC describes the fan and internal heat sink as nearly silent in normal use. Sustained heavy transfers may make the fan more audible.
Does it work with Windows PCs?
It uses Thunderbolt, so a Thunderbolt-equipped Windows PC can use it, but the stacking design and port layout are aimed at Mac desktops.
