Sonnet Echo Express III-D Thunderbolt 3 edition
Recently ordered the thunderbolt 3 edition of the Sonnet Echo Express III-D to house my HDX and UAD cards. Only just read that our HDX cards are NOT compatible with the thunderbolt 3 edition of of the Sonnet chassis, only the thunderbolt 2 edition. Does anybody know when we could expect HDX to be compatible with the thunderbolt 3 chassis? I'm assuming it's an Avid issue and not a Sonnet or Thunderbolt issue since other cards don't seem to have any compatibility problems. If the fix is forthcoming, I'll just wait, but if this is going to be a persistent issue, I'd rather find a thunderbolt 2 chassis to use.
Thanks!

The Sonnet thunderbolt connection is on a daughter card. You can change a TB3 to a TB2 by a swap of that card in that chassis. Talk to Sonnet.

Re: Sonnet Echo Express III-D Thunderbolt 3 edition
Indeed, I've talked to the Sonnet guys at the IBC recently, and they stated the Echo Express III thunderbolt 3 is not compatible with HDX cards. TB 2 card is.
They don't know when they expect it to work, because the "fault" lies at Avid they say... |
