OWC used to make some awesome products. Sadly they've gone downhill quite quickly. See other Mac Rumors posts from other users - major quality control issues, and bad customer service [the 2 things they used to excel at]. Also the headline is again misleading as these hubs go for just a bit more than their sale price [like $20 more].

The regular price on these is $114.99 on Amazon ('https://www.amazon.com/OWC-14-Port-Thunderbolt-Compatible-OWCTB3DK14PSG/dp/B07JMH6BSY?th=1'), so this barely even qualifies as a sale

My sincere apology for any issue at any time. I and the team here take every issue seriously and, for over 35 years, we have been here to help.

We've not had a PATA enclosure in the market for more than 10 years, but I understand when there is a problem, can feel like yesterday. The level of quality, care, and just engineering excellence in the full OWC product line I can tell you is without compare in our space. We listen, we evolve, we bring solutions that our customers need and depend on in workflows that can't fail. Things like live concerts, NASA systems control, and even at the Super Bowl. We're here to help before a sale and long after too - with real people who absolutely care. We build solutions with the understanding that our customers depend on them in many different workflows and with data where failure is just not an option. We can not control every aspect of use, but what we can control we build to be the best possible.

With respect to the $99.99 deal - it's a deal and it's gone after this week. We've done some summer promos in the $110-120 range recently prior to this - no ideal where Amazon gets a $114.99 'typical' - but I can promise, this deal is gone come Monday and will soon be back up closer to $200, which is still a bargain for the capabilities this Dock provides. These are fully enabled, full bandwidth ports with the chipset balance to ensure things don't throttle ports back. easy to add ports - engineering done right means that there is good bandwidth for all the ports + low latency from accesses via them. This kind of work goes into each and every one of our Docks - performance and reliability - Longevity in design into each any every OWC product.

Thousands are enjoying this OWC Dock that MacRumors has called out and we're glad for them to have the benefit our docking provides. Thanks!

If not such a demand / need to support usb-a, we’d drop them. But not giving customers the usb-a ports they are asking for - adapter dongles are a hassle and headache.

Removing usb-a ports from docks doesnt change the customer need to have those ports available.

Hate this dock and most other ones that are on the market at this time. When will manufacturers finally stop adding USB-A ports to new hardware?! The whole point of USB-C was to standardize and get rid of USB-A & B.

You want backwards compatibility? Fine, then use a tiny adapter for legacy devices! But don’t make me use an adapter for new devices when they shouldn’t need one. Get this USB-C transition over with already and decommission A&B, mini, micro and whatever else there is.

Right now we’re literally living this!

There are a lot of people on this planet, each with a different set of experiences. I can tell you that my experience with OWC has been nothing short of poor. I have purchased several different items from them starting in 2005 with a Mac RAM Upgrade and finally ending in 2022 with an OWC Thunderbolt to Dual DisplayPort 1.4.

For the first couple purchases, I was very happy. However, over time each purchase has either failed or performed significantly under spec and compared to other products. The last product was returned due to failure. I will say that for any failed product, the MFG has offered a replacement, or if quickly enough, a refund. However, two of the four failed product replacements also failed. Over the years I kept telling myself, based on experiences with their older products, I was just unlucky or it was just a particular product. But after only still using one out of the last six purchases, I don't think I am unlucky.

When 5 out of 6 products from one MFG fail or massively underperform....you move on from that MFG. That is what I have done and can not in good faith recommend this MFG to anyone.
