FYI: The USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports are not true 10Gbps ports. Even if you connect a fast NVMe installed in a good-quality USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 external enclosure you will only get the same transfer speeds as a 5Gb Gen 1 port. In effect, you should see transfer speeds of around 900Mb/s write and 800Mb/s read at best. Seems very misleading on Apple's part.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe Apple simply adjusted the USB ports with older hardware to give the consumer the M2 chip while lowering the overall price by $100.00 compared to the previous version. At $599.00, the consumer is still getting a great budget friendly apple computer.
