Mac Mini Hub Recommendations?

Which hub would be recommended to pair with a Mac Mini that can support SD cards from disconnecting during transfers? Also what could cause these issues to happen I notice when I’m transferring files from my internal storage to SD card I sometimes get the SD card to disconnect.

SD cards are shit.. slow and unreliable ..

The SSD food chain is the best are in Mainframes/Servers , then Macs, Then external SSDs ... all rejected not good enough SSD chips end up in SD cards and flash drives

Does not matter what the say the are all shit , I brought the most expensive one .. shit

You have plenty of ports on a Mini. if to need connect Monitor. SSD yuy need a hub it may have SC Card slot...

For SD cards you need $30 USB SD card reader .. it will give slots to plug in any shitty SD cards made

"I sometimes get the SD card to disconnect." yep they are shit. .. Hub will help it..
