      Meanwhile, an upgraded 2015 Retina 27" iMac might become my main computing device (because a friend is getting rid of one), and if so, I've decided I'm sorting out the HDD temperature sensor nonsense, because apparently nobody has reversed that yet?

      There's apparently *one* company that makes replacement stick-on thermal sensors (that I guess OWC and iFixit buy from), and they're charging $40 for an ATtiny. Just no. (There are also conflicting stories about how necessary this is, so I'll find out)

      Why the iMac? Well after a CPU upgrade it should be a ~40% CPU perf boost over my current main laptop, which I'll keep as a side device anyway, plus NVMe storage, and I wanted a ~4K screen anyway, and I no longer consider my main box being a laptop a requirement.

      My original plan was to wait until AMD laptops with USB4/TB come out, but that's taking forever, and this will be overall cheaper anyway. And hey, although I'll put Linux on it, having OSX be an option might come in handy.

      AMD + Thunderbolt in laptops is unlikely/rare/maybe even nonexistent because Intel is mainly responsible for Thunderbolt. USB4 probably won't be until the end of the year at the earliest.

      Yeah, I expect it to happen end of year or early 2021.

      End of year for Xmas sales is probably what they want to target though given everything else going on in 2020 I'll be surprised if a lot of things aren't slipping.

      USB4 is TB by the way, hence why that works for me too. What I actually need is FireWire, but since ExpressCard is dead and nothing has built in FW any more, Thunderbolt/USB4 is the only option.

          Yeah, I noticed that about the spec though given how Apple's USB-C implementations are I am wondering if some vendors might turn off/on features selectively. I'm curious what you need FireWire/IEEE 1394 for in 2020, something legacy?

          Audio interface. It's not even that old (5y), and I'm very happy with it. Focusrite Saffire Pro 26.
