#Thunderbolt 3 dock sdd multidock full
One last note: While Sabrent for some reason says that full operability of the Docking Station is only supported on Intel-based Macs, it worked immediately in a plug-and-play situation with a Mac Studio, so I don’t think there is anything for M1 users to worry about. But the Mac Studio does have a fan, even if I can’t hear it, and the lack of active cooling in the Docking Station means it gets very hot to the touch when it’s working hard to write or access data, but even just as a point in my Thunderbolt daisy chain, it’ll heat up fast after I’ve turned on my computer and stay very toasty all day. After years of having both a fan in my computer and my RAID array, there is something to be said about the bliss of that kind of silence. The decision to keep the Docking Station perfectly closed off and without active cooling means that when I’m at my desk and pairing it with the Mac Studio, my office is dead silent. Even other SSD options will still tend to have some kind of active cooling, and that includes the OWC miniSTACK STX which serves a similar function to the Sabrent Docking Station.
I’m normally a fan of RAID arrays and all of the ones I’ve ever owned have some sort of fan to help keep the system cool as it writes and accesses data. It has an entirely brushed aluminum exterior that feels sturdy and substantial and one thing that might not have been obvious from the company’s product photos is that it doesn’t have any sort of active cooling system. The Docking Station feels extremely well made.
