Re: HDN Thunderbolt & Windows Laptop
Quote:
Have you run other TB devices on that laptop? I'd make sure TB was working before clicking buy on an expansion chassis. Since the HDN card is half-length, you won't need a full-length chassis like the III-D. STs are quieter than Magmas.

Re: HDN Thunderbolt & Windows Laptop
According to the guy from Microsoft at summer NAMM it isn't officially supported yet because there's no hot plug capability and there are some security issues. He said they are working on a driver which will probably be released as part of windows 10 in a few months.

Re: HDN Thunderbolt & Windows Laptop
Anyone doubting that HDNTB on Windows works, and is plug n play, should read my Pro Tools Expert article, which demonstrates it working perfectly.

Re: HDN Thunderbolt & Windows Laptop
All Thunderbolt does is bring the PCI bus out on a connector. The computer identifies any piece of Thunderbolt-connected hardware as if it were just a card in the computer. Thunderbolt devices require a Thunderbolt chip in the device and I understand the cable requires a chip. With the right hardware compatibility is pretty trivial.
