usb 3.1

I can't seem to find the specifications for the cable that shipped with the 15 Pro Max. Anyone know? Is it 3.0? 3.1? Thank you!!

Hi I recently installed OC and uninstalled it on my 5,1 MP and I am currently running Mohave now, and my issue now is my pci Caldigit Esata, USB 3.1 card is only seeing the Esata connection on the card and the USB 3.1 ports are missing? Is there anything I can do? Thank you very much...

I used Anker NVME enclosure (RTL9210B-CG USB 3.1 Gen2) w/ crucial 1TB P2 NVME drive for external storage. After I backup 3 of my iOS devices (using symlink) to my M1 and eject the drive, the drive could no longer mount to both M1 and an Intel Mac. The mac sees the usb chipset, but it just does...

So I just bought a Caldigit TS3+ dock to use with my 15” 2018 MBP and though it seems to be working fine, I found two issues for which I’d like to confirm wether they’re common/normal as I’m currently debating internally whether I should return/exchange it: When using the headphone port on...

I am currently using a Beyimei USB 3.1 card on my cMP 5.1. But a few days ago I saw the aforementioned USB card on Amazon and ordered one unit. According to Inateck, the 5211 is compatible with 10.8.2 and later. Has anyone tried this card?

hi, I have a MacBook air and until now I used mini-DisplayPort to VGA but recently it just stopped working (I suspect it because the system update to 10.15)- I tried anything I could find on the web. I'm thinking to buy a USB-3.0(male) adapter to USB-type c (female) and a USB 3.1 Type-C to VGA...

I just bought a nifty M.2 NVMe enclosure for a 1TB SSD, and using USB 3.1 gen 2 get a remarkable...and more to the point, noticeable...speed boost when accessing photo libraries. Now, of course, I discover that TRIM isn't supported for external USB drives. Part of me thinks I should turn a...

Any recommendations on which USB to use as backup to files stores in the iCloud. I don't want to risk losing additional iCloud files with the Catalina beta. Also, any thoughts on how to backup files in the iCloud to the USB? Can it be automated or is it manual?

So I got my base model MBP 2019 and chose to buy an external HDD to have more space. I tested the HDD on my windows computer and it is working fine. The HDD is with USB 3.1. I also bought a USB-C Hub but I kind of cheeped out on it. It does say it's usb-c to usb 3.1 however. Now the problem is...

For some reason, whenever I plug my iPhone into my work laptop (Lambda Tensorbook), the phone charges very slowly. The laptop only has USB 3.1 ports, so it should be charging the device with around 900 mA of current. I tested the actual output of this USB port, and it was only at 500 mA of...

I've been testing a USB 3.1 Gen2 external enclosure quite extensively (it's had some issues, went back to supplier, they couldn't find issues, so sent it back with a known-good cable and I'm testing some more). As part of this, I had it plugged into the supposedly USB3.0 (5Gbit) type-A ports on...

Hey so I just wanted show you how I upgraded my MAC PRO 5,1. t I got the Radeon Vega Fronteir working right out of the box in Mojave (still cant get the Nvidia Pascal to work). The 10GBe card is from Solarflare and you will need to get the drivers for this one. I use this to connect to my PC...

Can someone answer if this actually reliably works? I don't know if it's the usb-c hub that I have that doesn't allow it but when I try to plug in two 2.5" external hard drives into the hub that's plugged into 1 usb-c port on a MacBook Pro, it is capable of reading both drives but the moment I...

I was really hoping Apple was going to update the 12" MacBook alongside the 13" MacBook Air. It's been 17 months since it was last updated.. 17 months with the same pricing.. it seems so wrong to buy it new today but it's the only option I'm left with besides finding one 2nd hand. Having silent...

Hi, I've got an old Macbook Pro Early 2011 with Thunderbold (the first version I guess). I've now bought a case for my SSD which has an USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C output. Since Thunderbolt supports up to 10 Gb/s, I thought about using it instead of the USB 2.0 ports. However I couldn't find any...

Hello, First time post, unsure if I have it in the right section. I brought a OWC thunderbolt external hard drive, with 4 bays running thunderbolt 2 almost 4 years ago. Has worked like a charm. When I got it, I re-formatted the 4x 5TB hard drives that came with it, using Mac OSX at the time...

My Mid-2014 MacBook Pro Retina's right USB port stopped working. I tried the SMC reset and the NVRAM reset. It seems the only thing left to do would be to replace the logic board which is a $300ish job. I don't want to that and I'd like to keep this laptop around for longer so I'm thinking I can...

I believe I've read or heard that the internal SSD's in the new iMacs are several times faster than what you can get from an external SSD. Does anyone have any numbers on this? I'm asking since Apple's prices for SSD's are, if not exorbitant, at least rather expensive. On the other hand...

I thought I'd share this because I think the price is really cheap. In fact, the cheapest I've seen in the UK, way cheaper than North American prices I think. It's going for £419 right now on Amazon UK...

My office has (finally) started to refresh some older Mac Pro equipment. I managed to snag a 5,1 cMP with 12 Core with running at 2.66 GHz (should be x5650's). It currently has 26 Gig of Ram 6x4GB Sticks and two 1GB Sticks. The stock graphics card is a ATI Radeon HD 5770. Right now, because I...
