If you own a Macbook...

The Macbook is a great tool, but sometimes I need more ports. I've partially solved the issue, but I think THIS would make it so much cooler!

No

[@supercc1560]

Nope. As long as the problem you are asking them to fix is not caused by your attachment. Once a camera cover (those sliding things you stick on top of the camera) caused the screen to crack. So that was not covered under warranty Seen a lot of macbooks which get their screen repaired for free (from functional issues) even though they have stickers on the back of the lid.

it seems like the kind of thing they do at the space station or in an environment with a lot of money (to just get new hinges whenever it wears out) but space is constrained / practical function is a priority but the accelerated wear of the hinge for the rest of us who want to keep our macbooks in great condition after 5-7 years of daily use would not be so good. depends on how much faster it'll loosen the hinge i'd imagine.

[@randomoneforstuff3696]

Apple says that the hinge on the macbook screen is designed for the weight and thickness of the macbook screen alone, so any case will damage the hinge. You don't just put a case on it but you have also put a hub and ssd on it. the macbook can't handle that. If there is a failure, it will be out of warranty.

[@NickKokkinos]

You could always buy a windows laptop and have all those internally 😜

You would possibly risk the MacBook’s structural Screen / Lid integrity… even effect the ability for the lid to eventually and/or possibly remain functional on its own, by weakening or offsetting the hinges …the silicon generation of MacBook Pro’s fantastic Pro-Motion screens are thin and fragile, and although okay to stick an SSD or mini hub, intermittently… it only takes a moment for Velcro to be a true “Game Changer”… Products are available now, good and bad… question is will your screen survive? …my 2 cents, take care and be well all!🎉
