Is it possible to put a Kona PCIe card (probably Kona 4) in a Sonnet PCIe TB2 chassis, alongside an HDX card? I'm thinking about picking up a used Kona 4 and using with a Gen10 and SyncHD for genlocked picture playback.

My system is currently a MTRX Studio connected to HDX1 in an older Sonnet Echo III-D TB2 chassis connected to a 2019 MacBook Pro i9 with an Apple TB2->TB3 adapter. PT Ultimate 2022.4/macOS 10.14.6.
I don't think you'll even get a Kona 4 running like that on its own, let alone with an HDX card. You'll need a TB3 expansion chassis to handle that card and it'll probably saturate even that, so you still won't reliably run an HDX card with it.

Cheers,
Pete
