thunderbolt 3

Can this be done WITHOUT using a powered Thunderbolt dock. Meaning can I connect two 30'' Cinema Displays to the 2018 Mac Mini without frying the Mac Mini's thunderbolt Ports. I'm trying to migrate from my current setup Macbook pro 15'' mid 2015 16gb ram with dual 30'' cinema display, using...

So I saw Apple has new braided USB-C cables! But the 1m cable is just 60W instead of 100W... Now, hypothetically... What if I only want to carry around one charger and one cable for iPhone, iPad and Mac... What if I use the shorter 1m braided 60W cable with a 96W charger and my MacBook Pro...

Hello. tL;dr at the bottom, I am in music production and just had to sell my m1 Mac Mini 16 gb ram 256 gb storage music machine. In which I booted Ventura from an OWC Envoy enclosure with a 4 TB Nvme m.2 TeamGroup SSD. I am blessed to have found (at a thrift store of all places) a mid-2011...

I recently bought the BlackJet TX-1CXQ reader. With its Thunderbolt 3 interface (allowing bus transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s), I was hoping this reader would allow the full potential speed out of my 1750MB/s CFExpress card (Lexar LCFX10-256CRB). I am aware these numbers are top speeds, but...

I’m repurposing my old Intel MBP (15” 2016, first gen with touchbar) as a headless server. The plan is to turn off WiFi, BT and connect to my M1 Pro MBP using IP over Thunderbolt and Internet Sharing. However, I’m facing an odd issue when the Intel shuts off the IP/TB shortly after (~30s) its...

Just a quick post based on an idea that I had: as a further form of market segmentation, how likely do you think it is that next year's iPhone 15 gets USB 3.2 Gen 1x2 or 2x2 (10Gbit/s and 20Gbit/s) and the iPhone 15 Pros (or iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Ultra, in titanium, naturally) get USB4 Gen 3x2...

Hey, from what I've read (example here) it's possible to hook up an NVMe drive to an iMac mid 2011 via an Apple T3 to T2 adapter and a self-powered dock. This is the setup I'm using, with a self-powered dual NVMe enclosure (from Sabrent found here). I'm running macOS Sierra 10.12.6. I'm able to...

It’s ridiculous, I’m a producer/video editor and need more ports on my MBP M1 Pro max. Unless I spend $1600 on a display then only I can get 4 more ports. We need a 4 port adapter for MacBooks And not lame after market OWC brands

Curios if anyone else is experiencing this but I have three macs: Machine A - 2019 Mac Pro Monterey 12.1. Machine B - 2021 MBP m1 MAX Monterey 12.1 and Machine C Mac Pro 2009 High Sierra 10.13.6. When I connect them, whether it's via thunderbolt 3 bridge between the two newer macs, or Gigabit...

If you are using a QNAP via TB3 and plan to update to Firmware Version 5.0.0.1828, please be aware there is a bug. QNAP is aware of it. Unfortunately, the tech support person I spoke to, prior to updrading to V5.0 did not inform me of the bug. When I called back, a different support person told...
