Recently purchased the M2 MacBook Air and I’m looking for an HDMI adapter. When I look up compatibility on the Apple Store app, the only option is the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter. Are there any fundamental differences between the previous thunderbolt ports and the one on the M2? Any...

I bought a Caldigit TS4, and the website show me it could run 2 XDR in 6K 60Hz over one TB4 cable. I understand M1 Pro / Max / Ultra can using DSC to do that, but I can't understand why 2019 MBP 16 with Navi Radeon Pro graphic card are unsupported, it also support DSC too. any way to explain that？

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...

I compared the internal 10 Gbit/s network adapter of my base model Mac Studio (Max) with an external Thunderbolt 3 10 Gbit/s network adapter from Sonnet. Internal: External: The difference seems to be a more conservative power ramp up (take a look at the beginning and the end of the graph)...

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...
