Twelve South accessory BackPack now fits 24-inch M1 iMac

One of those I-should-have-thought-of-that gadgets, BackPack affixes easily to the iMac’s stand to provide additional, stylish and hidden shelf space for everyday items or accessories such as USB-C hubs, external storage devices, odd plants and similar items that can easily clutter your work desk. Read: 10 great accessories for iMac users

Originally debuted back in early 2010, the updated accessory sports the same sturdy aluminum build as the original version. However, the new BackPack is not color-matched to your M1 iMac—the accessory still only comes in one color, white.

The aluminum vented shelf with airflow holes helps keep your devices cool. Every BackPack ships with an Apple Watch-like band for securely strapping gear like hard drives to the top and bottom of this evergreen accessory from Twelve South.

Twelve South announced:

BackPack for the M1 iMac is a fresh take on the first product released by Twelve South—12 years ago. This sleek aluminum BackPack shelf quickly and seamlessly attaches to the back your iMac stand to declutter your desk by hiding hard drives and hubs behind your iMac. If the back of your iMac faces co-workers or customers, the matte white shelf becomes your personal pedestal to showcase awards, art or even your favorite action figures.

A solution to organize your workspace, BackPack can be used to house all sorts of things that would otherwise be cluttering your work desk such as hubs, hard drives, smartphones, keys, figurines, collectibles or even flowers.

The refreshed BackPack is available from the Twelve South webstore for $44.99.
