Sandisk Pro-Dock 4: Too Well-Made for My Purposes

I got this Sandisk Pro-Dock 4 card reader holder and laptop dock a while back for a bargain, hoping it would be somewhat slapdash in its electronics such that I could "convert" it to be used as a simple USB 3 card reader apparatus. Turns out, it's so Thunderbolt that Zeus himself is scared. The engineers at Sandisk (and/or Western Digital) did an absolutely masterful job with this hardware, though the product appears to have been let down by poor software/driver support. It seems to be discontinued now, which is a shame. In this video, I tear down the thing and check out its components. Relatively high-res photos of the two internal circuit boards are available here: https://s.co.tt/pro-dock/ 00:00 Intro 01:24 The Device 06:30 Opening the Thing 15:50 The Power Supply Module 19:24 The Internal Circuitry 24:20 Photography Tangent 25:17 Is it PCIe? 27:30 More on the Internals 32:32 Rambling Conclusion or Whatever
