## Questions & Answers

**Q: I assume this is also compatable with all previous (slower) USB standards as long as power requirements are satisfied?**
A: This is correct, but a supported operating system has to be used as well on the host system.

**Q: Will this achieve 2000mb/s when connected to the thunderbolt (40gbps) port of a 2018 macbook pro?**
A: No, Write speed I got is 634mbps and read 928mbps, also slows down significantly on anything over 5gb

**Q: Can I use this with my Mac without downloading software or reformatting?**
A: Yes.
I use it on a 2014 MPB, OS Catalina. Didn't need to do anything and it's always worked a treat.
I did have to buy a USB 3 to USB C adapter because I have an older Mac. But that shouldn't be a problem with newer MacBooks, which all have thunderbolt inputs.
