What cable do I use to transfer data from a 13" MacBook Pro M1 2020 to my iMac 24" M4

Hi there!

The easiest way to migrate your files from your MacBook Pro to your new iMac is by using Migration Assistant:

Transfer to a new Mac with Migration Assistant - Apple Support.

You can either use Migration Assistant by connecting both Mac computers together with a Thunderbolt cable, or let Migration Assistant establish a wireless connection between the two Mac computers. Often, using a cable will result in a quicker migration.

There are a variety of Thunderbolt cables that could work well for you needs. Here are a few options:

• Thunderbolt 5 (USB‑C) Pro Cable (1 m) - Apple
• OWC Thunderbolt 5 (USB-C) Cable - OWC

Hope this helps!

The fastest and most reliable way to transfer your data to the new Mac, is to connect the MacBook Pro's Time Machine backup to the new 24" iMac. see > Transfer to a new Mac with Migration Assistant - Apple Support
