Still, another dongle to carry (with Mac Mini it's not that important) and a loss of speed/added latency for e.g. video editing. With normal usage patterns even USB 3.0 external thumb/SSD drives were just fine.
- stephenr 8y agoSo use a tb3 enclosure with an nvme inside.
- Sephr 8y agoThere are no bus-powered TB3 M.2 PCIe enclosures, and there never will be any[1]. This means you will have to buy a huge bulky externally-powered TB3 PCIe dock costing hundreds of dollars to accomplish this. 1. https://twitter.com/sephr/status/817883011165233152?s=19 https://twitter.com/sephr/status/817883011165233152?s=19
- stephenr 8y agoNo, it says there won’t be any that are sold unbundled.

With normal usage patterns even USB 3.0 external thumb/SSD drives were just fine." What is the speed difference between the on-board PCIe connected SSD vs. the USB3 connected SSD ? Aren't both PCIe and USB3 faster than the SSD, making it the bottleneck ? A flash drive would, of course, be terribly slow ... do they make USB "thumb drives" that are SSD (not flash) ?
