Major brands include Akitio, G-Technology, SiliconPower, Monster Digital, OWC and LaCie external Thunderbolt SSD backup drive offerings shown above. Who Manufactures Thunderbolt Backup Peripherals? Thunderbolt 4 is now shipping with a transition from 10Gbps UUSB 3.2 Gen 2 to eventual full 40Gbps USB4 support. In fact, Thunderbolt 4 incorporates SuperSpeed+ USB 3.1 10Gbps protocols so that either Thunderbolt or USB-C peripherals can be used on a modern Windows or Mac computer's Thunderbolt 3 port. The newer 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 spec adopted the smaller and more widely used Type-C USB 3.1 connector. In the 2020's we now have 4 generations of Thunderbolt: The original 10Gbps TBolt and 2nd generation 20Gbps Thunderbolt 2 using the mini DisplayPort interface.

A PC or Mac compatible Thunderbolt SSD external backup drive can really leverage the potential bandwidth available for the fastest data backups and file transfers you'll ever experience. So, solid-state flash memory disk drives are the most logical pairing of the two technologies. Conventional hard drives can't fill a fraction of Thunderbolt's data pipeline. Thunderbolt outstrips the bandwidth requirements of nearly any single personal computer peripheral available today. Minimally TWENTY times faster than the popular USB 2.0 spec, and double that of the competing 5Gbps USB 3.0 SuperSpeed standard, Transcend's solid-state JetDrive below is one of the few TBolt 1/2 solutions that's still being sold if you're determined to leverage a legacy TBolt port. Below are 1st & 2nd generation drives that may still be available new, or more likely used on the aftermarket. Legacy TBolt 1 & 2 Storage Rapidly becoming obsolete, the mini DisplayPort type of Thunderbolt drive are basically no longer in production. *NEW* Next Generation Thunderbolt 4 SSD Drive EnclosuresĤ0Gbps Thunderbolt 3 SSD Storage Solutions
