More specifically, it's new for the Mac Mini with M1 chip. This has been a build-to-order on the Intel Mac Mini for a while.
Personally I'd be more excited if Apple could help mainstream 2.5Gbps Ethernet as the base option. The consumer market has been stuck at 1Gbps for far too long.
- deusum 6y ago1Gbps has to be more than enough for 99% of home use cases. Gig speed internet is only now becoming mainstream; are you running home-brew ML?
- simondotau 6y agoIt's certainly plenty for anything involving the Internet. But for local connections it's quite tired. Now that we have SSDs everywhere I just want my local backups to run a bit faster.
- poisonborz 6y agoPort speed was always mostly about satisfying home network rather than being simply bigger than your net bandwith. NAS, sync or streaming between local devices, etc.
- ksec 6y agoI mean WiFi 6 or WiFi 6E will have faster Wireless Speed in read world than wired Gigabit Ethernet. Surely we dont want Wired to be the bottleneck.
