BizSugar.com › Products and Services › New MacBook Pro Ports Don’t Work with Your Devices? Meet HyperDrive

When a Kickstarter campaign collects nine times its intended goal with 14 days left, it is safe to assume the idea has hit a chord. And the makers of HyperDrive so far have raised more than $970,000 from their initial ask of $100,000.
So what is this product that has raised so much money in such a short time?
HyperDrive is a Thunderbolt 3 USB C hub designed to fit a very niche — users of the 2016 MacBook Pros. Just in case you are not a Mac person, the new MacBook Pro was released with only Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports. This of course didn’t go well at all with the tens of thousands of people who have peripheral devices with USB-A or Thunderbolt 2, because USB-C is physically a different port.
