I just came across this article from yesterday, which is making my search for an external HDD and SDD enclosure even more complicated. I was just about to order a Sabrent 4-bay enclosure (+ SSD brackets), but now I am not so sure. I don't really need Thunderbolt for my SATA HDDs and SDDs but I...
Hello I have a question about the Apple Thunderbolt 4 Cable (1.8m). I have an Intel certified Amazon thunderbolt 4 cable and I’ve noticed that I get faster transfer speeds on my external M.2 to SSD than the official Apple thunderbolt 4 cable is this because the Amazon thunderbolt 4 cable has...
I plan on upgrading to a Mac Studio Max. To figure out what I need exactly I made a diagram of the stuff I plan to attach:
What do you think? Does this make sense? Anything I can optimise?

Hello! =)
First post here!
Just acquired a (reasonnably priced, cheap) MacBook Pro 8,1 , early 2011 13" (Dodged a bullet lol, didn't knew 15 and 17" had dGPU issues hehe). This is my first Mac (I have been using Hackintoshes since 2014 but it was a challenge/educational thing more than any...
I recently purchased a M1 Mac mini, as my old windows desktop gave up the ghost. Since I had existing displays, decided to use the HDMI out and the thunderbolt port (with an adapter) to connect the existing displays. I have connected an external SSD to the second thunderbolt port. If I don't use...

Hello guys, I bought a m1 mini and I'm looking for a monitor to complete the setup.
I'm looking at used options, and I was in doubt between the Thunderbolt Display (in the box, conserved and already comes with the TB2-TB3 adapter) and the LG Ultrafine 21.5 4K (2017 model, without a box, but also...
I have just purchased the new MacBook Pro m1 Max and am looking to invest in a home office setup to take full advantage of the thunderbolt ports and overall upgraded performance. I have upgraded from the 2015 pro retina, so have never used thunderbolts before. I am first looking at a decent...
Does anyone know if Caldigit TS3+ with M1 Pro / Max have any issues with dual monitors using the doc with 1 thunderbolt cable?

Hi
I'm wondering if anyone has tried to add a USB-port hub or a TB3 or TB4 hub on a TB3 Dock and what his/her experience.
I'm using a Caldigit TS3+ Dock and I'm in desperate need of more USB Ports.
I am thinking to use the USB-C or the 2nd TB3 port for adding an unpowered USB-C port hub like...
I’m using OWC Thunderbolt 4 Hub with MacBook Air M1. I installed OWC Dock Ejector. When I boot Mac with OWC hub attach, Apple SuperDrive does not work. But I boot Mac then the hub attach, Apple SuperDrive works. Does anyone have same issue?
This is my second attempt at purchasing and using a Mac Mini M1, as my main computer. Frustrating, to say the least.
I feel like I am failing at my attempt.

Seems to be a big issue. Please share here the write speed to external SSDs you get connected to your iPad Pro 2021.
On a Samsung T7 USB 3.2 SSD I got only 44 MBps copying a 5 GB file to the HFS+ formatted SSD using the original USB 3.2 and a TB3/USB4 cable.
Apple Support just confirmed to me that they’re receiving multiple reports of slow connection speeds when connecting a 2021 iPad Pro to an M1 Mac mini. I’m not sure of how many different configs are involved, but I have the 12.9” 1TB and a mini with 16G/1TB. The senior advisor indicated that the...
