Apple Macbook Pro Sd Card Boot

I just bought the new Apple silicone MacBook Pro. But unfortunately there’s no SD Card slot. This works perfectly as expected.

So, after switching out everything from Win10 to my MacBook Pro, I'm heading out to the field and need a way to get my SD card images into my MBP. Since the MBP does not have an SD card reader, I just knew Apple would have a dongle for this, I mean really (!?). And so they do. No problems with it to date which I expect with Apple products. Just wish they'd have included an SD card reader slot into the machine.

I purchased this to make an external boot drive for my 2015 MacBook Pro. This device is probably the fastest way to add external storage to my machine since the Thunderbolt 2 ports are far faster than the USB3 ports. Since this Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 enclosure is self-powered, you can use the Apple Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter in reverse, making full use of the MacBook's Thunderbolt 2 port and getting super fast transfer speeds, making it suitable for use as a boot drive. I don't have any benchmark utilities, but I copied a large VMware image from the internal Apple SSD to an external 2TB FireCuda 530 and saw an Activity Monitor peak write speed of 1.6GB/sec, which is super fast. The case gets a little warm, but that means that it is effectively sinking heat from the M2 drive. I used this to successfully build and test a system upgrade to Mojave, and will continue to use this to occasionally run modern OS versions that I don't want to permanently upgrade to due to software compatibility issues with old apps I still need to run. Right now, it's Velcro'ed to the laptop lid and holds a 1TB drive waiting to test Catalina, so I can see which apps break before deciding if I want to take the plunge. All in all, it's perfect as an external drive for my older MacBook Pro, it's well priced, and extremely well constructed. I'll continue to use it for the rest of the life of this machine, and it'll still be useful if I upgrade to a more modern machine later.

It took me forever to finally upgrade my old 2012 MacBook Pro as the newer one's have been denuded of their SD card slot and older USB 2.0 sockets. I had heard rumor that getting a smaller side dock was a mediocre solution, but didn't want to carry all of my adapters during a trip to the Caribbean, so this one made the most sense to me. I must say I was quite pleased with it, so much so that I didn't really notice it much, as it just worked without flaw. If you are running one of the 2014 or newer MacBook Pro laptops, I highly recommend it!

I was unhappy with the USB-C SD card reader I have for my 2019 MacBook Pro and wanted something more reliable. I saw another photographer review this and thought 'what the heck'. It was on sale at a decent price. I really only needed the card reader but got so much more. I was surprised how small it is. And it gives me both of my USB-C ports back in addition to the 2 card reader slots and the 2 USB slots. It has a little bit of 'wiggle' and I could wish it felt more secure in the laptop's side but it's not been an issue. I am not rough on gear and won't stress it's connection. I like the small light on one end that shows it's connected and my cards pop up immediately on my desktop. The USB-C plugs work perfect. I haven't had it long but so far at home and on the first trip out of town it was just right.

Although I had an SD card reader for my iPad and older Macbook Pro, now we have Type-C so had to purchase a new card reader. Simple device, easy to travel with, does its job. Faster than connecting the camera directly to the laptop.

Apple MacBook Pro's have always delivered, and this one is no exception.

This product is perfect for my 13 Apple MacBook Pro.
