Re: [Avid-L2] Connect Tbolt only drive to a Westmere MacPro (mid 2012)

 

If those are single-spindle drives (i.e. not RAID arrays) you can pull out the internal SATA drives and throw them into an external drive dock with a USB (or whatever) interface.

Situation is that I have people bringing me drives that only have Tbolt ports on them. How can I connect that to an older MacPro? I don't see any PCIe cards to add Tbolt ports, but maybe I'm missing something.

I did find a PCIe card from Sonnet to add USB3.0 ports, and a PCIe card from StarTech to add USB3.1 ports, but is there a cable that will allow a Tbolt drive to be connected to either USB3 or USB3.1?

Thank you for assistance.

Jay
