    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 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.

    Older hard drives that are good enough on older iMacs with Thunderbolt 2 interface work just fine on the newest iMac with Thunderbolt 3 USB-C interface. I recommend it.

    Worked as expected. I wish it would’ve been a bit more affordable, seems a bit much for an adapter but unfortunately I had no choice as I needed it for work.

    I did not want to buy this but Apple made it one of these must have devices to use the new Mac so all I can say is it does the trick. It works as expected and has a price to match Apple.
