Looking for an optimal DisplayLink arrangement to offer 4 total additional displays with a nice range of additional USB-A and C options. Any suggestions? I'm guessing I'll need to get two DisplayLink devices either with 2 outputs each or one with 3 outputs + 1 with 1 or 2 outputs. I'm only...

Hey all, I have taken on the challenge to connect a Seagate Nytro 2.5" SAS Enterprise SSD to my MacBook Pro 15" 2015. I know that 99% of you will tell me to sell it and forget about even trying. I specifically knew of the perils to making this successful, so please save me that advice. Based on...

I recently had an issue with my XFX R9 280X with MAC EFI and two brand new BenQ PD2700U monitors. The monitors connect via Thunderbolt cables (and you can plug a Thunderbolt cable in to Mini DisplayPort to get video output only). Upon powering on the system and trying only one BenQ monitor, it...

I just got an M1 MacBook Air. My prior computer was 2011 iMac. I do video and photo as hobby, been doing it for 25 years so I've gone from FW400 to FW800 to USB and then a Thunderbolt 1 enclosure on my iMac. I now need to modernize all this to ideally USB-C or Thunderbolt. I purchases some...

I have a M1 MBA and I am looking for a reliable Thunderbolt 3 or 4 dock for my home setup with the following requirements... 1. Dual DisplayPort's (with HDR support) for my dual 4k DisplayPort Monitors (non usb-c/thunderbolt) 2. 3ft (or longer, or extendable) thunderbolt connection to laptop...

Please forgive me if I am asking for something that's probably already been covered to the nth degree. I'm new here and joined to primarily seek advice. ( I will contribute later after I've acted on whatever decision I make.) Usually, I would take the time to research more thoroughly in this...

how come when I transfer 46 folders with 20 gigs of stuff from the iCloud Drive to my desktop of my brand new iMac it transfers in 3 seconds... when I then transfer from my desktop of the same computer to a sandisk usb-c thumb drive in the thunderbolt ports it takes like 10 minutes... also is...

Hello guys, I have a Mid 2014 15 Macbook Pro currently connected to an Apple Thunderbolt Display and an Apple LED Cinema Display 27 and I want to upgrade to the M1 Mac Mini M1 but I don't know exactly if that's possible for me to use both of my monitors at the same time as I know that you can...

Is a thunderbolt cable the only thing I need, or do I need anything else to connect the two and make this as seamless as possible? Thanks in advance.

Hi all – I am hoping someone might have some idea of what might have happened to one my monitors… I run a total of 3 including the MBP’s screen as you can see… Here is the setup… Mid-2014 15” MBP retina running 10.14.6 1st Monitor - Dell E248WFP 2nd Monitor - Dell 2408WFP – PROBLEM MONITOR (on...

Hey So I received my magsafe charger today. Soon as I opened it, I plugged it into a thunderbolt port on my 2020 13" MBP (I removed the charger and left in the USB bank I have). The magsafe wouldn't work... It only seems to work when I remove the USB bank from the other thunderbolt port... Any...

Is there an adapter that will let me connect an HDMI peripheral, like a gaming system, to my LG Ultrafine 4k Display, which only has thunderbolt ports? I need an HDMI to Thunderbolt adapter, NOT an Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. It's a subtle difference when typing, but a huge difference in...

Hello. I've got an external 4TB hard drive that uses a thunderbolt connection, but I also would like to connect a monitor (via thunderbolt/mini-displayport). Problem is, it only has 1 Mini-Displayport/Thunderbolt port. Are there any workarounds? Could I use some kind of USB-3 to HDMI adapter...

Hi, maybe someone has idea what is the problem? My Macbook Pro 2017 model no touchbar, 2 thunderbolt ports. Bought used HP USB-C G4 dock (not thunderbolt). It was with not original cable, but usb 3.1 gen 1 (i guess 5gbit), also i have gen2 cable (10gbit) and Lenovo original usb-c cable for my...

Hey all, I think I know the answer to this – but is there a MBP with 4 Thunderbolt 3 ports, but *without* the touch bar? I need Thunderbolt 3 for work – and I need all three ports. But as a power user, hate the Touch Bar. It's beyond pointless. You all know this – any solution that needs...

I am not sure when it happened exactly but before my employer went "work from home" I used to be able to connect my Caldigit dock to the right side so I can run my drives and dual monitors. No problem since February until mid to late March. Got back into the office this last week finally and...

I am trying to use this older Apple Cinema Display (Mini DisplayPort) as a second monitor with my LG UltraFine (thunderbolt 3) display. I am running the Cinema Display through an OWC USB-C Dock which both has a Mini DisplayPort and also supplies power to the MacBook. Both work independently with...

Hi, Mini2018 + Mojave + LG's 34WK95U-W: Apple failed to ever get this bug fixed. After sleep, the very good loudspeakers (+subwoofer) in display stays silent, you might say at sleep. Even disconnecting a cable in either ends, does not fix this. You need to cold boot Mini to fix this. Could it...

I am trying to connect my macbookpro 2020 to my imac late 2013 though the thunderbolt 3 to thunderbolt 2 adaptor and thunderbolt 2 cable. This does not seem to work though and im not sure why

Can I use dual LG Ultrafine 4k 23.7" via daisy chaining from my PC or do I have to use 2 separate displayport to usb-c cables from my graphics card? My Windows Desktop does not have a thunderbolt 3 header or port. I have an Asus Strix 1080 Ti in my PC and was wondering if I could run 2...
