OWC Rocket Yard on it’s fastest portable drive now with USB4!

OWC’s latest drive is USB4, so it supports USB4, USB 3.2, USB 2 AND Thunderbolt 3 & 4, which is $119.99 empty and up to $1299.99 for an 8TB.

I just find it exciting for future OWC products to all be USB 4 so compatible with everything.

And according to Mac Performance Guide the large version is fast, faster than internal Mac Pro drives!

Thunderbolt 5 is announced with double the speed of 4, and triple for video!

You can read about it at AppleInsider or also the Thunderbolt experts at OWC.

I love that it will continue using the USB C port, but the fact that it allows so much more power scares me as it means hubs will be even more expensive, and I use so little in powered from the ports. I would love the speed though, and even better for video, so you could get better resolution at higher frame rates.

And you know this will show up in an Apple product first, maybe the next Mac Studio? That would make sense to me.
