[SOLVED] Looking for a very fast SSD 12 tb hard drive that does both thunderbolt 2 and usb 3.1

[jabartone]

Im editing videos for a company. their computers have thunderbolt 2 connectors where as my PC has usb 3.1. we're looking for a ssd hard drive that will either have both usb 3.1 and thunderbolt 2 or just usb 3.1. also, will there be any playback issues if I play a 4k video from this device if its formatted in exfat?

also, are there thunderbolt 3F to thunderbolt 2m adapters? what about thunderbolt 3 to usb 3.1?

"12TB SSD" ?
Doesn't exist yet.

And "SSD" and "hard drive" are two different things.
SSD = Solid State Drive
Hard drive = spinning platter.

qnap has nas servers with thunderbolt / usb 3.1

even if 12TB SSD's exist they would only be for the enterprise sector right now and no way you could afford one

While the capacity is way under what you are looking for, which does not exist in an SSD anyway unless you use some sort of RAID box, LaCie has a USB C and USB 3 external SSD drive. I actually got a demo unit from them and it works great, although a bit pricey for general home use for most people https://www.cdw.com/product/LaCie-Rugged-Thunderbolt-solid-state-drive-1-TB-USB-3.1-Gen-2-Thund/4669095
