    Apple almost always means quality, so that's why I purchased this adapter instead of a generic. Well, I did buy a generic version and it didn't work - so i bought this one, and it worked like a charm.

    Great device that allows you to port up to newer standard. A must have if you have older devices you want to connect to newer hardware!

    Get a third party adapter instead of this.

    Way over priced for what you're getting. Do yourself a favor and get a 3rd party adapter. Yes it works fine but cost 5x more than the others.

    Perfect solution to allow me to connect my M1 MacBook Pro to an older OWC multiport dock so I could set up a multi-display arrangement.

    Upgraded to a new MacBook Pro and needed to use my old thunderbolt drive. This allowed me to do that. A little pricy, but reliable. I couldn’t risk a loose connection with an off brand version.

    The adapter is pretty handy. I use it to connect my mac to an audio interface. No issues so far. The design is nice too. Little pricy though.

    I had several Thunderbolt 2.0 adapters from my previous MacBook Pro, and no way to use them with the USB-C model. This adapter works exactly as needed, and you can chain adapters together if you find yourself needing to connect that legacy Firewire 400 device.

    I know that we can not stop time with "Technology", however, the adapters are the bridge from old to new technology. It works great with the old connectors without having to buy new cables.

    I have been using this adapter for a while now and it is working well. There are some gotchas with this adapter and I have made 3 youtube videos about them: 1. Not working with USB C 3.1 gen 2 SSD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AADSbBEheRw 2. Not working with Thunderbolt 3 SSD:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNm8N6c1h5I 3. How to get this adapter to work with an SSD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYE1G6AvjE4 Hope this helps someone.

    I bought a new MacBook not realizing some of the ports had changed from the previous model. This adapter while somewhat expensive works great so I can connect my new MacBook to my old hard drives.
