Does anyone know of a Thunderbolt dock/hub that *adds* Thunderbolt ports—not just a passthrough? (Prompted by: http://mjtsai.com/blog/2014/10/11/belkin-thunderbolt-2-express-dock-hd/ …)
@Bagelturf So how does the Mac Pro do it? 6 ports but only 2 buses…

@mjtsai I thought it had three chips, each with 2 ports. I do know that not all the ports are the same, so muxing? -
@Bagelturf The first article I found was wrong. You are right; the Mac Pro has 3 Thunderbolt buses, 2 ports each. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5918

@mjtsai@Bagelturf The 2013 Mac Pro has 6 ports on 3 buses. -
@wklj Yep, thanks for the correction. -
@mjtsai Scrolling through my timeline I see you discovered this like 4 tweets later. Ah well :-)
