Re: Anyone running Accel cards in Thunderbolt to PCIe chassis?
So, if I use a Windows computer with a Thunderbolt port, then I can put my TDM cards in the external box and it will run just fine? I don't like the idea of using Windows, but I can live with it if I have to.

You could but there really is no point. Any PC modern enough to have Thunderbolt will run ten times better Native than TDM.

As I understand it, TB is simply hot pluggable Pcie over wire. It is effectively transparent. It is nothing to do with Apple or individual card manufacturers, but everything with having the correct Intel chip set in your host. Sent from my iPhone killer

Re: Anyone running Accel cards in Thunderbolt to PCIe chassis?
No offense, but you could not be more wrong. There is not a computer made that can do what TDM can on that computer! Best of both worlds, considering your sig, I would think you'd know that. If, that were true, you woluld not be using a TDM rig, an HDX rig, and an HDN rig?

It's probably very easy to jump off a balcony, but there may be reasons not to.

Thankfully most places I have to use are now at least in this decade. I recently had to open a small 5.1 session from my 11HDN on a 10HD3 TDM. It was completely maxxed out by my session to the point of beach balls every time you tried to do something. Incredibly frustrating. On a native system I am getting a whopping 12 samples of latency, instead of 2 frames through TDM. Rather than waste your time and money, I thought you would be better off considering the native alternatives. And as for chips? There is no way that a ten year+ old design (Accel) is as powerful as the latest i7's, E5's and Cuda GPUs. Sent from my iPhone killer

Trust me, I've tried the whole Apogee/Symphony thing two separate times. If I was a mixer mostly, I would not use TDM. I have to be able to track at any stage.
