Video Description

The new ACASIS TB501 Pro is one of the world's first PCIe Gen 5 SSD compatible enclosures. At 80Gbps and being compatible with Thunderbolt 5 & USB4 V2 (USB4.2). Paired with the 4TB Samsung 9100 Pro, this is currently the fastest external SSD for your MacBook Pro or any Thunderbolt 5 Mac. For anyone wondering. Yes, the Samsung 9100 Pro is capable of around 14,000MB/s. However, and although the new TB501 Pro is compatible with PCIe Gen 5. The underlying technology for the PCIe tunnelling over Thunderbolt 5 is still only PCIe Gen 4, which is the limitation. I'll do a video explaining that soon. Nonetheless, this is currently the fastest external SSD storage drive for your Apple Mac computer. Keep an eye on my channel and I will do a video once the new TB501 Pro is available to buy. *I'M A DUMBASS* 🤣 I have just noticed that I had the wrong box in the video. I had been testing the TBU405Pro as well and it was the last box on my table. I'll correct that in the next video with the new TB501 Pro 🤣 Stuff used in this video: M4 Max MacBook Pro https://geni.us/CHKn New ACASIS TB501 (TBR) Samsung 9100 Pro 4TB https://geni.us/hlaycNO ACASIS TB501 (Current Gen 4 version) https://geni.us/ACASIS-41 WD SN850X 4TB https://geni.us/WD-4TB-WithoutHeatsink *NOTE* The iVANKY dock was only shown as part of my workflow and I would not recommend buying this particular model.
