This is the highest performance option for offloading data from the Compact Drive to the Mac Pro (2013) with a maximum rate of 1400 MB/s. The Compact Drive can also be loaded into an Adapter (CX.0001009) to work in the Capture Drive Dock (CDX-75013-1) which connects to the Mac Pro (2013) via TB2.The Compact Drive can be used with a Compact Drive Dock TB3 (CX.0001007) connected to the Mac Pro via a TB2 to TB3 adaptor (official Apple adaptors are recommended).In this case the performance will be limited to 180 MB/s. Connected to a USB-A host port on the Mac Pro, using a USB-C to USB-A cable.When connected to the 5 Gbps USB-C port the performance will be around 375 MB/s.

When connected to the 10 Gbps USB-C port the performance will be around 550 MB/s.

Connected to a CalDigit TS3 Plus, via the 10 Gbps or 5 Gbps USB-C ports.

In this case the performance will be around 800 MB/s.

Connected to a Sonnet Allegro USB-C PCIe card, which is installed in a Thunderbolt expansion chassis such as the Sonnect Echo Express SE I.

The Compact Drive Reader can be used with a Mac Pro 2013 model, or any Mac that has Thunderbolt 2 ports, in the following setups: If you have any further questions or concerns about the compatibility of your Compact Drive Reader, please contact CODEX Support or email with a Mac Pro 2013 With Device Manager 6.1.0 and above, a notification will inform you when a Rev A Reader is connected to an Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 12.4 and above that it will run at limited speed.įor information on updating firmware, please see the Updating Firmware section below.

The change in macOS 12.4 applies the same whether the Compact Drive Reader is directly connected or looped through another device to the Apple Silicon Mac.ĭevice Manager 6.1.0 (a vailable on the CODEX Software Downloads page) and above includes a firmware update that can be used on Rev B Compact Drive Readers to restore full performance when used on an Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 12.4 and above. The change in macOS 12.4 will also temporarily affect the Rev B Compact Drive Readers, which will also then operate at this reduced speed on Apple Silicon Macs until they have a firmware update applied (see Firmware Updates and Device Manager section below). With macOS 12.4 and above the Rev A Compact Drive Reader will now work on Apple Silicon Macs, but with limited performance (around 600 MB/s). This issue is known to affect all Apple Silicon Macs including M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, M1 Studio and M2 running macOS 12.3 and below.ĬODEX has worked with Apple to identify a workaround for this issue, which has been applied to macOS 12.4 and above. ** Available on the CODEX Software Downloads pageĬompact Drive Readers with Apple Silicon Macs and macOS 12.3 and belowĭue to compatibility issues with the Apple Silicon architecture and the USB chips used in the original Rev A Compact Drive Reader, if one of these Compact Drive Readers is used on an Apple Silicon Mac with macOS 12.3 and below, when data is read from the Compact Drive the transfer will stall or fail. * See Device Manager Compatibility and HDE section **Device Manager 6.1.0 or higher required for firmware update Works at full speed after firmware update. Works at ~600MB/s using factory original firmware. *Device Manager 6.0.2 or higher recommended It also details the Device Manager version required or recommended. The table below shows the compatibility of Compact Drive Reader revisions on Apple Silicon Macs with macOS versions. USB 2.0 ports should not be used as they provide only 0.5A, which will result in poor and unreliable performance. It will provide 3A power, but is restricted to USB-2 data transfer speeds.Ī suitable cable for optimum performance will be a USB-IF certified type-C to type-C cable rated for 10Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen2), or a Thunderbolt 3 (passive type) cable. For example: An Apple 2m Charge cable is unsuitable. Please ensure you are using a suitable cable which provides full USB-C data transfer speeds. (In this case it is likely that the Compact Drive Reader is connected to a USB-A port.) The available power is indicated by the status light on the front of the Compact Drive. The Compact Drive Reader will then provide a connection speed of 8 Gb/s (1 GB/s).Ī USB-A port can only provide 0.9A and the connection speed will be limited to around 180 MB/s. We recommend to connect the Reader directly to a USB-C port that is capable of providing the maximum current allowed by USB-C (3A). The connection speed of the Compact Drive Reader depends on the type of USB connection and on the power that is delivered by the host.
