New Mac Mini, how to add peripherals...

New Mac Mini, what do I need to connect dual monitors and dual printers. A hub perhaps? What would you all recommend?

MacBook Pro to Studio Display I’d like to connect my MacBook Pro to my Studio Display. I tried just connecting the two, but I couldn’t get what was displayed on the laptop over to the studio display. Do I need an adapter to make this work? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

USB Ports in new MacBook Air? I have an 9 year old MacBook Air, and am contemplating upgrade. (Currently, the computer shuts down if not connected to power when the battery gets down to 96%) When I look at the new Air, I see only 2 thunderbolt ports and a headphone jack. Currently, I am using one USB port to connect to my Internet using an adapter, and one USB port to connect my mouse. I also have an external monitor plugged in to the computer. Also, I frequently load an SD card to download my photos, and it appears there is no SD card slot. How would I connect all these devices to the new "improved" computer without all the USB ports & the SD card slot?

To connect displays to the new Mac mini...?

see > Connect a display to Mac mini - Apple Support

For USB-A cabled devices...?

You will need USB-C to USB-A adapters or a USB-C to USB-A hub.

Wireless AirPrint printers the best option, because most manufactures no longer support USB print drives.
