srmusico Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 ¡Hello guys! Im trying to get my thunderbolt 3 USB-C working. My system are: -Gigabyte Z170X Ultra Gaming -i7 6700K -32 Gb RAM DDR4 3000 Corsair. -500GB NVME Samsung Evo 960 -500GB SSD Samsung Evo 850 -MSI Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 All the system is working for several months , but in that moments I hasn't got any thunderbolt device to test the connections. I have done the requested firmware Thunderbolt update from windows. And im in the latest Bios of this moment (f.23d) I think also that I have the correct bios configuration to get the system working. Now, I have a MacBookPro 15" i7 2017 with thunderbolt 3 USB-C , so I supposed capable to use the computer as an HD. I boot in the HDD mode , pressing T in the boot time, and then I connect via USB-C to USB-C cable my Macbook and the hackintosh. then I power the hackintosh and after of clover and everything, Im at the desktop without any thunderbolt connection. The USB-C port works , because I have used the USB-C to USB-3.0 A + ethernet. And connect without problem. what could I do to get it working? in a future I want to get an Apollo UAD interface . ¡¡¡Thanks you so much!!!

srmusico Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 ¡Hello Hackaro! Seems to be that Target Disk mode is not supported between hackintosh systems and a real modern Mac. ioreg says that i have thunderbolt correctly enabled.(tested by the mod Mald0n). I have read in a thunderbolt 2 hackintosh build the same issue trying to connect a macbook pro to the hackintosh with the thunderbolt 2 connections. He says that the connection has a problem with the EFI comunication between the two "macs". I don't know if this is real, but i dont find the way to use my MacBook Pro 2017 15" as a Disk xDDD. honestly i dont need to do that, but it was for testing the TH connection. I want also an UAD Apollo , and i was trying to test the port have you got other macbook/imac to test the Target Disk mode with your MOBO? Thanks you so much!!
