Hello,
I have 1xMac Mini 5,5 (mid 2011 with Thunderbolt port equiped with an AMD Radeon HD 6630M 256 MB graphic card.
I have 1x27" Apple Cinema Display (mid 2010 generation) with 3 USB ports. It doesn't have the Thunderbolt port.
I would like to buy a new 1x27" Apple Cinema Display with the Thunderbolt port and plug the previous generation 27" Cinema Display on its Thunderbolt port (for daisy chaining).
Will it works?
Thanks!
Nicolas.
The followng list the restrictions and capabilities of chaining thunderbolt devices:
Apple Thunderbolt Display (27-inch): Connection options for Thunderbolt Macs
Displays: Mini DisplayPort display must be last in a Thunderbolt chain
And if you google "chaining thunderbolt" you might find other related info.
Apple doesn't support plugging a non-Thunderbolt display into the Thunderbolt port of a Thunderbolt display but it may work if there is another Thunderbolt device between the two displays.
