[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1830291, member: 42497"] I used a Silicon Power ThunderBolt external SSD with a 2011 iMac and it worked great, faster than the OWC SSD internal at that stage. I now use the TB external as a backup, and also a USB3 Toshiba SSD for a secondary backup, you know like thew Irish to be sure, to be sure! The USB3 external takes a little longer to boot but running SuperDuper identical backups, they perform the task within one second of each other so go with it. [/QUOTE]
