I used to be a giant fan of Twelve South’s unique BackPack for the iMac when it was launched 13 years in the past. And I’m simply as large a fan of the new BackPack for the Apple Studio Show and iMac.
The US$44.99 product has one aim and achieves it flawlessly. The aluminum shelf attaches to the again of the Studio Show 24-inch iMac stand. You should utilize it to carry exhausting drives and hubs and declutter your desktop. I exploit it to carry/disguise the exterior exhausting drive I exploit as a Time Machine back-up.
The gang at Twelve South say if the again of your Studio Show iMac faces co-workers or prospects, the matte white shelf can showcase awards, artwork, and even your favourite motion figures. The again of my Studio Show solely faces a wall, so this doesn’t apply to me, however at the very least you already know.
The shelf requires a little bit of set up, however the course of is fast and simple. A two-piece holster snaps into the oval opening on the again of your Studio Show or iMac stand. Then you definately slide the stand onto the holster. That’s it. And though the shelf/storage rack solely is available in one hue, the holster is evident so the colour of your Studio Show or iMac shines by way of.
The BackPack additionally features a peripheral strap and cable administration options. You should utilize the strap to connect two units to the shelf. For instance, it is best to stash two exterior drives on the BackPack, an exterior drive and a hub, and many others. There are additionally a number of cable ties to tie up lengthy, dangling cables.
When you like a streamlined desktop as a lot as I do, the fairly priced Twelve South BackPack will conveniently scale back your muddle.
