I usually wait about a year before writing a review but everything went great with my 2017 MBP. The speeds with TB3 are excellent and I don't have to buy an expensive docking station as it has BOTH DisplayPort and USB-C ports to support external displays (plus 2 TB3 ports for daisy chaining). I actually bought a $300 dock (which I attached this garland to) and never use the dock as it has everything I need. and if I was going to be using a lot of USB 3.0 devices I would just grab a much cheaper USB 3.0 hub to connect to this one. In terms of storage space, this is my third LaCie external hard drive. It's professional, it's fast, it's driven by a Seagate Barracuda, and my other two have been pulling trucks for years. There is nothing worse than losing your data and I found LaCie to be of the highest quality, using quality drives/components that will last for years. Earlier models (TB2) had issues that turned itself off when the machine went to sleep. . This has been fixed with this TB3 Dock/Outer Case. The computer goes to sleep like the drive and wakes up like a charm. And of course you notice the difference in speed between TB2 and TB3.
