Use Mac As Second Monitor For Windows Laptop

I love this laptop stand for several reasons. First of all the price was great. Second, when I opened the packagege I was so amazed at how beautifully designed this stand is and how it matched my brand new MAC MacBook Pro laptop perfectly. It's also very sturdy and very well engineered! So that got me excited. And third, when I placed my lap top on the stand it brought the screen right up to where it needed to be for a comfortably view. The angle of the keyboard it great for typing and quite comfortable actually. I love this laptop stand and I have been pain free in my neck ever since I started using the stand with my laptop! Finally, I would highly, highly recommend this product to any MAC user! In fact, I recommended this to all my fellow students in my computer design class at school! Thank you!

Second backup and use with laptop for photo storage/backup while traveling.I had to reformat to use with my Mac but that was very easy. So far it has worked flawlessly.

I love this. I use it for everything and I love that it can be used by both windows and mac.

Use for Mac Apps as well as virtual PC Windows 11 apps using Parallels. All apps seem much faster than with Intel i9 or Xeon 8 and 10 core processors at similar clock speeds on other Macs. Nice feature is that all my old x86 and x64 apps for windows could be installed and run under the ARM64 Windows 11. My old Mac apps for Intel also run smoothly with the Apple Silicon. Adobe Acrobat running on the Intel Mac was consuming 80GB of virtual memory and was limited by 64GB real memory, causing memory page exchanges with the disk and slow performance. This 128GB memory does not seem to be slowed by the huge memory consumption of that app since it retains zippy performance even after hours of editing.

easy to use, and a sharp monitor as described. It works great with windows laptop and ipad.

Good quality cable. Use it with my new monitor and my work laptop.

This is plug-and-play: it worked right out of the box on my Mac, and also on a Windows-based laptop I use for another job, connecting to my Sony FX6. I had to figure out, through trial and error, that the frame rate I send out of the camera must be 29.97 in order for the computer to understand the signal. But once I had that sorted, I wound up with an image far superior to my webcam.

i have tested this with both a Mac and Windows laptop, and am currently using it with a new 2024 Mac (which only has 2x USB-C ports on the rear). Perfect for plugging in USB memory sticks, an old USB printer, and an external USB HDD for Time Machine backup. Positives - very fast (10Gbps), small and compact, great for travel, no drivers needed, Works with multiple O/S. Negative - Well the only thing i can think of is when its on my desk under the Mac, (with the cable going away from you) the Startech logo is upside down! Very minor point, but this is the only negative i can come up with. Highly recommended product, im very pleased with it.

We wanted a back-up drive for both a Windows machine and a Mac laptop. This was recommended by B&H so I bought it. It delivers as promised, after reformatting it to a FAT format. Works off 1 USB port on both computers, so it is very portable and convenient. Cannot attest to the durability or reliability as we have only had it about a month. If it continues to be this flawless, I will get another one.

This is my first time owning a Mac PC. I can say that I'm pleased with my laptop and may not return to a Windows PC. The laptop runs very smooth, no lags, and does not overheat which was one of my concern. Also, the battery life is great, overall I'm happy with my purchase.
