Yep, you can velcro light devices under the flip up phone shelf.

Sorry to say that it doesn't work the hard drive one way and the converter end the other way, are still too thick to allow the USB to fit into the socket. i'll have to try something else.

I solved the problem by ordering a Scandisk USB Mate and a 128 GB Scandisk high Endurance micro SDXC card from Picstop £25.88. oads of room left in the hub now.

So it arrived at the end of the week but the compartment is too small for my usb laptop HDD enclosure I have! Don't really want to spend another £50 for another HDD so might end up sending back or take a hack saw to make it fit.

This is the enclosure I have on my TB laptop drive

I ended up getting my spare SSD to fit in w/o an enclosure. I bought the Sabrent USB 3.0 to SSD / 2.5-Inch SATA adapter off amazon for $6 (I bought used) and with a spare ssd had enough room to route the cable in front of the SSD, it's not the prettiest, but it fits, cover goes over well and best of all there isn't any room to rattle around.

I will say I had to remove the Hub to get the cords sitting correctly, but wasn't difficult.

I ended up doing the exact same thing from the exact same usb adaptor but from Amazon UK!

Ive just ordered the same hub off amazon, but, I am planning on using a Samsung T5 portable SSD, which has a usb c connector

The protective film left on the USB connectors is triggering me

My ‘pro’ hub arrived on Monday, sadly about 20 minutes after I’d left to go away for a week, when I’m back I’ll measure that up, see if there is any difference in space

Funny it did me as well. I just (initially) didn't say anything.

Any difference in space?

I’m back home Monday, will report back then

Back home now, pro hub has arrived, I’ll put up a review / comparison shortly, but to answer the question @Rajanm1 the enclosure is actually smaller!

I've been pondering about the hub pro, I'll await your initial review DaveW.
