You Bought the WRONG Cable… (USB-C vs Thunderbolt 5)

Not all USB-C cables are created equal — and today, we’re putting that to the test. In this video, I compare a standard USB-C cable, a Thunderbolt 4 cable, and Silkland’s brand-new Thunderbolt 5 cable to see just how big the difference really is in speed, power, and performance. We’ll test real-world transfer speeds using a Thunderbolt 5 NVMe enclosure and the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test on my M4 Pro MacBook Pro — so you can see exactly what each cable is capable of. If you’ve ever wondered whether Thunderbolt 5 is worth it, this video should make it crystal clear.
