Usb 3 on Macbook pro ?

Post by maximerioux »

I plan to buy a Motu 24Ao which steams audio data over USB 3.0 connection. Is my Macbook Pro 2011 is able to handle that data speed over the existing USB connectors ?

These new interfaces use USB 2, not 3, although they are compatible with USB 3. So I wouldn't expect the speed of the connection to be an issue.
