Read the article carefully, including the small print. There is some confusion on wether or not 2020 Macs will still support target display mode or not.

From the article I posted;

"You can connect any of these older iMac models to another Mac from 2019 or earlier for use as an external display.

Thanks. Can I use a mini display port cable on this adapter? Or should it be a thunderbolt cable?
