High-performance storage: From flash drives to server hard drives (April 2018 edition)
I've had my MacBook Pro for over six months, and here is a list of must-have accessories that I have bought (and carry around with me) to augment my new system.
In an effort to make the MacBook Pro as thin as possible, Apple has done away with the gigabit Ethernet port. So this isn't something that I use all that often—Wi-Fi has all but replaced it—but there are times when I have to resort to a wired connection.
This is where Apple's Thunderbolt to gigabit Ethernet adapter comes in handy. I can throw it into a notebook bag and it's there waiting for me when I need it.
Since I take a lot of photographs, and I back up to a NAS box, I need a fast connection, and this dongle gives me just that.
Price: $29.
