does the HD run Thunderbolt 1 or Thunderbolt 2 ?? Thanks

This drive is using Thunderbolt 1. The Studio series from G-Drive does have Thunderbolt 2.

According to this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5219#1 I believe you should be fine. Read it to be sure, but I believe the Haswell based Airs run video through thunderbolt just fine.

This models connects with the Thunderbolt cable to your computer, there is another model with USB cable in case your computer does not have that input.

This unit does not have a thunderbolt port. The MacBooks do not have a thunderbolt port. Only the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro may come with a thunderbolt port.

Yes, it will. I have one screen connected with the thunderbolt and one with HDMI. Works well.

it's thunderbolt version 1 which is more than performant enough for what the dock does. Thunderbolt 2 is backward compatible with 1. It does not come with the TB cable.

Hopefully someone else with more knowledge of Macs and their Thunderbolt connection can answer. I'm not sure since I use this monitor with a Windows 7 Home Premium box with the supplied cable.

Yes, the Thunderbolt specification states that it is capable of supporting up to 60Hz at 4K resolutions (3840 x 2160). Since this monitor is actually a lower resoultion than 4K, the thunderbolt port will have no issues supporting the 3440x1440 resolution @ 60Hz. Thunderbolt 2 has double the bandwidth of Thunderbolt and thus will be able to support up to 120Hz @ 4K.

In my experience the second Thunderbolt port on these Seagate Backup Plus adapters can be used for any additional Thunderbolt device including Apple Cinema Display monitors, pro video capture and play devices, audio DACs, additional hard drives or RAIDS. Hope this helps.

No. This model only has one Thunderbolt plug. Additionally, I returned my product as it would not stay mounted to my Mac system. My other Thunderbolt drives will stay mounted for days and weeks, but this one would only stay mounted for a few hours and would then inexplicably unmount. LaCie Tech support- after a 2 day wait for a reply - could not resolve it and offered to take it back for repairs, but would not replace it. However, Amazon promptly took the return and refunded my money.

Hi, Melissa. No Thunderbolt. You must have seen a photo with an e-SATA port which it does have. It's got two 800FW ports, one USB port and one eSata port. You can easily get a Thunderbolt to 800FW adapter which is what I use with my AirBook. They cost $29 from an Apple store. '-( Hope this helps! Dana Jae

I have the same problem. Not very happy about it, but they say it probably my PC. I'm not using a MAC so don't have Thunderbolt. WISH i did. Sorry I can''t help

That depends. The thunderbolt implementation has issues and periodically will not respond. Since you are not using it for video, you may not see when it disconnects. If you are using it for an external drive, it may disconnect while in use... I have stopped using it and am trying to return the product.

Ah, I see what you're saying, the Technical Description says Two Dual Core. But the title says Two Quad Core, and the RAM, gfx card, and HD all correspond to the current Mac Pro. Very confusing - I'm sending more e-mails to customer service.

I think so, as long as you have an adapter for the thunderbolt to HDMI or DVI your good to go.

I would not buy this item. The drive is one of the slowest thunderbolts out there. The drives are not user serviceable. If a drive fails u need to send it in. I experienced cooling issues with this unit as well.

The drive as it is , is a USB3 . To have it Thunderbolt capable you would need to buy the optional Thunderbolt adapter. Would the Thunderbolt adapter workd on the 1 TB drive ?. I dont know
