Ty, just what I was looking for.

Posted

I have recently purchased an Alienware 15 R3.  It only has two USB 3 ports, and I would like to get some more.  Because I have two Thunderbolt 3 ports, I was wondering if anyone could recommend some USB 3.0 to Thunderbolt 3 hubs.  I couldn't find any, but maybe you guys could.

not possible

Lol I meant for a hub where it would be 3.0 turning into Thunderbolt 3-similar to the Mac hubs, but with Thunderbolt 3 instead of 2.

Can I connect USB devices to a Thunderbolt 3 port?

Yes, Thunderbolt 3 ports are fully compatible with USB devices and cables.

 

 

But for some reason can't find a single device that works like that

Thunderbolt 3 into multiple USB.

 

It triggers me how little variety of accessories there are for TB3.

Uses TB2 but it should work fine for the sake of USB

These kinds of things aren't cheap :P

My dad uses a Thunderbolt hub for his MacBook Pro which has a bunch of other ports including USB if you're interested in that

Holy shit that's expensive

 

I'd buy it if they using Thunderbolt 3
