Hi guys, just got one new unit MacBook Pro M2 Pro 12 core 16GB RAM 1TB from TMT Lowyat with very reasonable price (RM7999)
Currently surveying hub that can put one M.2 NVME SSD and have ports functionality as well, then look onto this hub: PEPPER JOBS TCH-7M2UD. Does anyone here got use with it? Or do anyone here got better suggestions? |

QUOTE(firdausbhari @ May 6 2024, 01:25 PM) 14 inch MBP? Yeap 14 inch MBPI would personally use a separate NVME enclosure as they can get pretty hot. In my opinion the heat will eventually affect the whole hub.  16 Inch one weight is too overkill for me Okay currently I ordered one 20Gbps NVME enclosure now with fan cooling, let's see how it does after deliver to my house |

QUOTE(firdausbhari @ May 7 2024, 04:41 PM) Just to clarify, Mac only supports 40gbps TB4/TB3/USB4 or 10gbps USB3.1 Gen 2 Ohh sad initially I thought they stated USB4 on tech spec and thought they got 3.2 2x2 as well (20Gbps) 😅U wont get 20gbps on Mac as it only works with PC USB 3.2 Gen 2 x 2, Therefor, the 20gbps enlcosure speed using Mac it will be limited to 10gbps which is about 900++Mbps read/write but for me its more than enough speed. Like that hmm that time should just buy TB3 NVME enclosure already haha |

QUOTE(miyakochan89 @ May 18 2024, 04:38 PM) I am underutilizing my macbook pro a lot. Only using it for surfing, watching shows and more surfing. Hahaha! I have been thinking to resell it but then... i am no audiophile, the speakers are damn good! Are there actually any mobile devices in the market that have such good speakers? Which spec are you on your MBP?I feel still for me sometimes I can hitting 16GB RAM max and using swap if I'm doing some extraction job on my Windows in ARM Virtual Machine and if running multiple Docker container together Still the machine is quite awesome, currently I already sell the bought wrongly 20 Gbps NVME enclosure and bought another 40 Gbps NVME enclosure with 1TB Samsung 980 Pro to offload all my big files |
