But again, that depends on your use case? Mechanical drives are still a better choice IMO for time machine backups, and they're the only practical choice for most people, for a large local media library.(2) EnLabs UC2MINIDPSL USB C TO Mini DisplayPort Adapter - USB 3.1 Type C (USB-C) to Mini DP Adapter (Thunderbolt 3), DP Alt Mode Converter w/ Aluminium Case for 2017 MacBook Pro/ iMac 2017 If you just wanted to use the TB1 drive, the TB3 to TB2 (or 1) adapter from Apple is only $50.Īs for a new drive, if that's the way you want to go: for anything besides backups/ridiculously mass storage, I'd probably suggest some form of SSD, either over USB 3.1 or TB3. However - it wasn't particularly cheap, and at this point it might even be out of regular production. It's now daisy chained to the down-stream TB3 port (using a TB3 to TB2 adapter) of a new Akitio disk array which is then plugged into a 2018 Mac mini), and has an ancient FW800 LaCie drive, a slightly less ancient WD USB3 drive, and a fairly recent Orico 5-drive array, connected via eSATA. For example, I have a left-over TB1 Akitio dock (this one, specifically: ) that I'd previously used with my 2011 MBP17. a dock with multiple "legacy" ports on it).
So, as for your specific needs: you *can* use those older Firewire and Thunderbolt 1 drives, if you want to - you just need the appropriate adapters (or e.g. The exception to that is some devices (typically hubs but also some monitors) have a newer Intel chip in them, which is dual-purpose: it'll operate as either a Thunderbolt 3 device, if connected to a TB3 USB-C port, or as a USB3.1Gen2 device, if connected to a non-TB3 USB-C port. So to summarise that: a Thunderbolt 3 port, is by definition a USB-C port, and will support USB-C devices, but non-Thunderbolt USB-C ports (typically found on PCs but also on the 12" MacBook) will not support Thunderbolt devices. cheap "USB-C to DisplayPort" cables work). USB-C also has an alternate mode for DisplayPort (this is how e.g. USB-C ports can carry a variety of USB signals: from 2.0 up to 3.1Gen2 (formerly known as 3.2). This is not dissimilar (for the user) to how Thunderbolt 1 & 2 uses the MiniDisplayPort connector/port. Thunderbolt3 is a protocol, which uses the USB-C connector/port exclusively. Unlike the other USB connector/port types, USB-C is specifically designed to work in "alternate modes" for other protocols, using the same physical connector. Just like USB-A (the original one), USB-B (the one usually used for Printers, etc) etc etc. So to answer your last question first: USB-C is a connector/port. It depends a bit, what your goals/use-case are, what your budget is, and of course personal preferences.
