[QUOTE="krs, post: 1853264, member: 67742"] What is there actually to convert that would justify a $200.- price tag? When one connects a USB 2 device via an adapter to a USB-C port on the Mac, one only gets the capabilities, data transmission speed and power, that USB 2 is capable of regardless of the USB-C capability A USB to USB-C adapter cable from Apple is just a few dollars. The Caldigit hub that Lisa mentioned is essentiall a "Swiss Army Knife", it's much more than a plain hub and includes adapters/converters for a widerange of protocols and port types. There is a bit of discussions on adapting USB to USB-C here: [url=https://www.synopsys.com/designware-ip/technical-bulletin/converting-existing-designs.html]Converting Existing USB Designs to Support Type-C Connections[/url] [/QUOTE]
