Description
Equipped with SSDs, the fastest 3.1 Gen 2 USB drives you can buy today are capable of 800 MB/s data transfers many are bus-powered, too. But, most desktop computers (even new models) include generations-old USB interfaces that will throttle that performance and may not offer adequate power to allow bus-powered drives to operate. Break through the bottleneck install Sonnet’s Allegro USB-C 4-Port PCIe card in your Mac Pro tower, Windows PC, or Linux(1) computer with PCIe slots; or Thunderbolt to PCIe card expansion system to support your fast USB drives at maximum performance.
