Hard disk with thunderbolt 1 port & no thunderbolt 1 port on new MacBook Pro

Hi, I have a WD 4T hard drive with a power port and 2 thunderbolt 1 ports. I just purchased a new Mac Book pro which has four thunderbolt 3 ports. I can I connect my hard drive with my new Mac? Tried to search for connectors but could not find any.


Any help would be appreciated.

You need this:

...and a Thunderbolt 1/2 cable (which you likely already have). TB1 and TB2 are the same except for data transfer speed.
