Apple Migration Assistant Thunderbolt Cable

Never really used the thunderbolt ports before then I bought my 27in 5k iMac and wanted to use the cable to run migration assistant between my Macbook Pro and the new iMac... WOW it took like 10 minutes! that is as opposed to the last time I ran migration assistant off WiFi an Airport Extreme time capsule backup that took HOURS. Now I just need to figure out what to do next with this cable

I bought this thunderbolt 3 cable for the file migration/transfer from my old Macbook Pro 15 2017 to a new Macbook Pro 16 M1 2021. The cable provided a great speedup of file transfers during the migration process. Besides, this cable can also used for 1) power cable; 2) backup cable for iPad Pro with USB C connection; 2) backup and file transfer cable for future iPhone 15 with a USB-C connection. It is a great thunderbolt 3 cable to have. Recommended.

The Apple Thunderbolt Cable worked perfectly for my streaming setup which included a Nikon D750 going out to a Blackmajic Ultra Mini Recorder to my Apple iMac. The cable is long enough to run the cable from the camera as it’s mounted on a tripod in the center of my studio.

Notice how Apple stopped selling their Thunderbolt Pro cable? I have one. It stopped working after a year. This Cable is solid. Hasn't failed me (yet).

Plugged in and started Migration Assistant. Loaded everything from old iMac to the new one via WiFi. Original estimate was 7 days, but it was done overnight. Drivers for some peripherals needed upgrading. Wacom tablet especially difficult.

Upgrade from prior Mac Mini. Absolutely trouble-free migration assistant--back in service in a few hours.

Great module as one would expect from BMD but be advised this is not backwards compatible with anything other than Thunderbolt 3; no not even with a Apple Thunderbolt 2 to 3 conversion cable.

Works great. It's an Apple product, and it's pretty much the only way to be sure that you're ordering a Thunderbolt 2 cable in the mini-DisplayPort form factor. I needed to connect two old MacBook Airs, and this made it possible.

When I saw Belkin was the same price as Apple’s thunderbolt 3 cable, it was a no brainer—you can’t go wrong with Apple adapters or cables. Size seems to be limited when it comes to data and TB3 chords. The $129 Apple TB3 cable seems way over priced, but the 2 standard sizes are solid, a decent price in comparison and Apple CService is top notch, just NOT as good as B&H, of course.

Obviously a great cable. I have ALWAYS had good luck with apple cables. going back to Thunderbolt 2. This is exactly the same, but better. Transfer rates are great, the braided line is a nice touch. But its insanely priced...
