Macbook Pro Charger Usb C Vs Thunderbolt

I'm using this on a new Macbook pro, it's great to be able to use the older usb ports and still have the newer ports. Wish it had the older thunderbolt 2, but understand that interface is a bit more complicated.

I'm using this with a 13" MacBook Pro using the usb-c connection. I wasn't sure it would work with the Thunderbolt connection, but it does! Monitor comes with cables, usb-c and HDMI. I tried another brand but it didn't work with a MacBook . This works great. Highly recommend!

Enables connection of multiple Thunderbolt cable devices as well as older USB-A cable devices to Thunderbolt MacBook Pro.

I was surprised how robust this drive is. This is my first Thunderbolt drive and it does not disappoint at all. OWC makes incredible sturdy products so I shouldn't expect anything less with this drive. I get about 2050 mb/s write and 2720 mb/s read on my MacBook Pro 16 inch M1 Pro 2021 and about 415 mb/s write and 420 mb/s read using the tethered usb c to usb a adapter on my MacBook Pro 15 inch Retina mid 2012. It's a big step up coming from a hard disk drive haha. I got the 4TB version formatted to Apple's APFS file system and it works flawlessly. I definitely recommend this Thunderbolt drive for anyone looking for a Thunderbolt drive.

Needed this for my existing Thunderbolt display and a new macBook Pro 16 with USB-C ports. Works perfectly.

I wanted to use my older Thunderbolt 2 dock from OWC with my new MacBook Pro that has the USB-C connector. This adapter works perfectly for that and allowed me to connect ethernet, monitor, keyboard, drives, and so on with just 1 connector.

I went from having dongles and cords plugged into all 4 of the USB-C ports on my Macbook Pro to having only one. This thing handles my two Thunderbolt monitors (QHD at 144Hz), mouse, keyboard, external hard drive, charging various devices, headphones, and power for the laptop itself without taking up much space at all. AND I now have the ability to use SD cards, something I was missing from my previous setup. This thing just works. My only complaint? The display arrangement sometimes flips when I plug the hub into the computer, but I truly believe that's a macOS problem. I was hesitant to buy such an expensive thing that just connects all my cords, but it really is worth it.

I use it to hook up my thunderbolt monitors to my 2016 MacBook Pro.

For my new MacBook Pro M1, I first tried purchasing Caldigit's new Element Thunderbolt 4 hub. It was nothing but an endless kernel panic with the M1 chip. Caldigit implied that was Apple's fault for their implementation of Thunderbolt 4 ports, but I didn't let them make me stick around long enough to sort out who's fault it was. I returned it, and bought this OWC one and it's been SO much better! No panics yet, sleep works fine, everything returns from sleep (whereas Caldigit's would consider my Pegasus2 RAID an erroneous disconnection everytime it slept), and it's actually really nice having SPDIF (digital) audio out, ethernet, and the card readers. I wish this had one more thunderbolt port out, but then again, I could still daisy chain a couple of my thunderbolt devices no problem. So far so great for this OWC 14-port T3 dock.

With the new macbook pro usb-c port you need one of these.
