Chapter 6, Problem 1TC
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An external hard drive for backups.
To find: The fastest connection used by the current external hard drives along with the speed.
Solution:
The fastest connection arrangement used by the external storage devices or external hard drives is Thunderbolt
The maximum speed of Thunderbolt
The Thunderbolt 3 connector uses the USB–C connection which enhances its compatibility for the external hard drives.
Thus, the fastest connection arrangement used by the external storage devices or external hard drive is Thunderbolt
