Endlich vernünftig arbeiten! Mein altes Dell TB16 Dock wurde vom neuen Laptop leider nicht ganz korrekt erkannt. USB-Geräte schon, aber ein Bild war dem Dock leider nicht zu entlocken. Zumindest nicht auf den DisplayPort Schnittstellen.
Weil das Dock sowieso eher unzuverlässig war und schon relativ betagt (und laut!) war, habe ich mir ein gebrauchtes Dell WD22TB4 bestellt.
Anstecken - läuft. Hoffentlich bleibt das so.
Realtek RTL8159 10GbE to USB 3.2 adapters sell for about $55 and up

Realtek unveiled low-cost, low-power 10GbE RTL8127 (PCIe) and RTL8159 (USB 3.0) controllers at Computex 2025. Since then, we noted that RTL8127-based M.2 and PCIe 10GbE cards had already launched for as low as $35. However, a new X post by Jeff Geerling reminded me it was time to check on those RTL8159 10GbE to USB 3.2 adapters. So let's do that now, starting with the Wisdpi WP-UT9 mentioned in the post/tweet. Wisdpi WP-UT9 WisdPi WP-UT9 specifications: Chipset - Realtek RTL8159 Ethernet - Up to 10GbE RJ45 port; backward compatible with 5 Gpbs, 2.5 Gbps, 1Gbps, and 10/100Mbps Ethernet USB - USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C port; backward compatible, but slower ports will impact performance; USB hubs/docks and long cables are not recommended either Misc - 2x LEDs - Amber (Link) / Green (Activity) Power Supply - Via USB-C port Dimensions - 59 x 29 x 13 mm Weight - 58.8 grams

애플 실리콘 기반 Mac Studio 여러 대를 묶어 사실상 새로운 Mac Pro처럼 쓰는 구성이 소개됐다. RDMA over Thunderbolt로 여러 맥을 하나의 대형 시스템처럼 연결해 고성능 AI/워크스테이션 환경을 구성할 수 있다는 점이 강조됐다.

Stacking Mac Studios is the new Mac Pro. Apple Silicon is the most advanced silicon you can buy + memory unit economics are better than anything else available today. High end market is now served by Mac Studios with RDMA over Thunderbolt turning all the Macs into one Big Mac.

M4 Pro Mac mini와 M4 Pro MacBook을 Thunderbolt RDMA로 클러스터링해 11가지 모델 구성을 벤치마킹했다. @exolabs를 활용한 실험으로, 애플 하드웨어를 연결한 로컬 AI/모델 실행 성능 평가에 참고할 만한 사례다.
