usb 3

I am writing to caution users who are specifically interested in the Pro model for its USB 3 connectivity but may not prioritize other upgrades, such as the 5x lens, 8GB RAM, Titanium frame, etc. It appears that the USB 3 speed (10Gbps or 5Gbps, depending on the paired device) is primarily...

I have a powered USB 3 Hub from Anker that worked well under Monterey. On Ventura, it becomes disconnected after sleep with an excessive power draw warning. Is anybody else seeing this problem?

When I bought my 27” 2020 iMac 3.8 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i7, 72 GB RAM. I didn’t realize the hard drive was soldered until it was a week too late. The 512 SSD is pretty rough. My computer is filling up. I also have an 8 TB Seagate Expansion HD external that is pretty full. Instead of buying a...

So far (2021, Sept 19) Big Sur 11.6 generally works well (Mac Pro 4,1 flashed to 5,1). 11.5.2 to 11.6 took about 45 minutes including multiple (natural) auto-restarts. ----------------------------------------------------- I only (rarely) get hanging-reboots when I'm experimenting with...

Hi Guys, I'm the proud owner of a mid-2011 iMac, which I use as my daily driver (besides my 2015 MacBook Pro which already has Thunderbolt 2 and USB 3). I have a few external USB SSDs that run at full speed on my MacBook Pro, but when I connect to my iMac it's throttle down to USB 2. Since I...

I bought a USB 3.0 (USB-A) to HDMI adapter but was too late to notice it wouldn't work with Mac - Windows only; as such my Mac simply won't recognize my Sony TV. Unfortunately a return is not possible due to the damaged package, so I thought since there's the Device Firmware Update mode which is...

Hi I've been given a G-Speed Shuttle Thunderbolt 3 RAID to edit from but it doesn't seem to work on my 2015 Macbook Pro. I've got a 2015 MBP running Mojave. I've tried using a USB-C to USB-3 cable from the RAID into my MBP but no luck. I then found a Thunderbolt 2 to USB-C (I think, it might...

I am hooked via a PCIe USB 3 card and some USB 3 hubs to a Logitech Brion and also some Altec Lansing speakers. Worked great on all previous systems but the late Betas of Big Sur have created a big stutter - useless. Has anybody seen this? Any idea for fixes? The Bio needs USB 3 for its full HD...

I have a PCiE card providing USB 3 and have a couple of hubs with a Brio 3 Logitech webcam and an Altec Lansing speaker. This works great on Catalina and earlier, but with Big Sur beta 10 video and audio "stutter." Has anybody else seen anything similar.
