Name of Port

[Smushily]

what is the ss port in the middle called and what is the data transfer speed of said port?

USB-C, probably 10Gbit/s.

USB type C

it's not a lightning port because of the symbol (same connectors afaik, but different protocol)

the bandwidth can vary a lot depending on what gen it is (they use same port and connector, but controller is different)

Lol figured it worked with usb c. All i really want to know is if its capable of taking advantage of the 540mbps my external ssd will have.

USB superspeed is 5 Gbit/s.

 

Technically there would need to be SS10 to be 10Gbit/s (super speed plus). Since nobody give any *** of properly labelling there ports it could still be true.

ohk thanks
