Getting new macpro. Have RAID external drive. I am unsure of the name of the connector but suspect it is thunderbolt not 3. I want to buy the correct connector so the data on the drive is available. Please point me in the right direction.

Thanks!enter image description here

    It is VERY difficult to really see anything from that picture, you may want to give it another try. That said it might be a USB-C/Thunderbolt cable. Best bet for you would be to look for pics of USB-C connectors by Apple on your favorite search engine and see if they match. – Steve Chambers Sep 30 '18 at 23:39
  • Thanks. I am no photog. It is not a usb c, as it does not fit usb c slots on other devices and it is older. The other end of the cable connects to the external drive that I want to connect to a new macpro. – elein Oct 01 '18 at 02:11

Welcome to the forums!

The picture makes it out to look like it could be be both USB-C as thunderbolt would be square.

Here is a link where you can read on apple’s thunderbolt 3 and at the bottom of the article are easy to compare images of what many apple device adapters female ends look like. Go take a look on the site rather than uploading another clear image.
