Only time will tell if you are right. Why don’t you reschedule this post for an update in 2 years. Personally my money is on the DOJ who, you know has actual lawyers and stuff, as opposed to two writers of an Apple blog.

Using the term twice the bandwidth is playing with fire. This is not a Thunderbolt 5 dock.

I guess I'm not sure what else you'd call it, considering it literally uses two Thunderbolt host ports, and two thunderbolt controllers in the dock.

But you would have to use two thunderbolt ports on the Mac. And those ports would have to be independent. The last Mac with independent ports I have seen is a Mac mini Intel. Each CPU on KVM would only be giving you 40 Gb per second.

Fundamentally, because of how Apple Silicon handles Thunderbolt I/O, all Thunderbolt ports on Apple Silicon Macs have independent bandwidth, and aren't on a timer. This is probably why the company says this dock only works on Apple Silicon.

So you can get up to 80 Gib if you use both ports. I wonder if anyone did some testing on the real speed you get.

It’s typical that most of the posts on here are from the Apple worshipping side.  Frankly as a stock holder Apple should be liable to its share holders and a debacle like the EV apple car should result in a lawsuit that punishes apple for recklessly following a bad idea!  Thats money that could have been paid for dividends!  That’s money that could have been put back into the software which quite frankly stinks!  It’s important for people to realize that corporations are beholden to the stock holders.  Their focus must be based on profit for their share holders who have “loaned” apple the money to do what it is that they do.  In return those share holders should be compensated.  Apple doesn’t give shares but after this disgusting mess they should and Tim Cook should finally, and I mean finally be fired from his position.  When Apple moves from California which they will, Mr. Cook will have even more to defend for his enormous wasting of the Apple headquarters which is become more and more vacant!  I know that I ‘m ranting but as far as tech goes all were seeing is the result of giant monopolies that are hindering new technology and pirating patents from the small guy and only forced to pay when they have to, but only after much time and money spent on attorneys.  Apple: Ditch Cook, get real about development!  Look to see how creative people work.  Develop a pen to paper interface to capture the authenticity of real live creativity.  Use ingenuity to move the human spirit and stop miring down creativity with over emphasis on sexuality!  It simply doesn’t belong in the corporate culture.  Not one other company celebrates hetero day and I ‘m for everyone being treated equally and fairly but you’re letting it interfere with your production by not rewarding hard working people based on merit and it shows in your product.  ( Whew.  Now I can get down off my soap box.).
