Does it matter how many hard drives, monitors, and other peripherals (keyboard, printer, etc.) that I plug into one of the USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports on the new MacBook Pro?
I have two external monitors, 3 hard drives, 2 printers, a microphone, hd camera, etc.
Will I get better performance if I plug the hard drives into one port, the monitors in another, and the printers, mic, camera, etc. into the third one? It would be easiest to plug everything into one port but I'm not sure if that's the way to get the best performance.
