Description
Sonnet xMac Mini Server Thunderbolt 3 Rackmount Enclosure.This item was purchased brand new from B&H Photo for use in our broadcasting setup. The item was loaded with a Mac mini, then racked up. Unfortunately, this device saw almost no use and thus we have decided to sell it. Item is in pristine condition. Unit is absolutely perfect with no issues and will include all originally included accessories, cables, power cords, brackets, manual, and box. Please note, this item will ship in its original box. NO EXCEPTIONS.
I also feel it's important to let everyone know that I have been burned several times by scam artists here on eBay. Therefore, all serial numbers will be recorded prior to shipment and any claims that the units arrived damaged or in a non working condition will be contested. Last, but not least, I DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS FOR ANY REASON. So, please ask any and all questions BEFORE bidding!
Also, if you are inexperienced with this type of device, or simply don't know WTF you are doing, please don't buy from me. I am beyond burnt out dealing with buyers who haven't got a clue as to what they are doing, then blame me when things don't go as expected. I am NOT a reseller, I am NOT able to provide you with technical support, and I am NOT going to tolerate buyers who wanna pull scams or try to lie and state that the item was defective just so they can facilitate a return. I am not Amazon, so you dont get to "buy it to try it". You wanna pull that BS, buy elsewhere.
Sonnet Xmac Overview
Convert your Thunderbolt 2- and Thunderbolt-compatible Mac mini into a full-size server using the xMac Mini Server Thunderbolt 3 Rackmount Enclosure from Sonnet. This 1U rackmount enclosure expands the capabilities of your Mac mini by connecting to its Thunderbolt 3 port for a transfer rate of up to 40 Gb/s, with 1.75 Gb/s PCIe bandwidth to installed cards. Connect a USB 3.1 Gen 2 storage drives to the second Thunderbolt port using a compatible adapter or cable for up to 10 Gb/s throughput.
Two PCIe 2.0 slots are available for installing compatible expansion cards for fiber optic connections, RAID controllers, video capture devices, and more. An auxiliary PCIe power connector is included to supplement the 150W power supply for cards that require extra power. In addition to its two USB Type-A connectors for peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and flash drives, the xMac Mini Server features an RJ45 port that supports up to 10Gb Ethernet and a HDMI port for external displays.
Ready for the Server Room

Energy Efficiency

USB 3.1 Gen 2
Doubling the speed of its predecessor, USB 3.1 Gen 2 features a maximum throughput of 10 Gb/s when used with compatible devices.
