Hello,
I often get thunderbolt 3 drives from my clients (freelance video vfx) and my PC does not have a TB3 card. I tried to connect the Asus ThunderboltEX card...that was frustrating and never worked. Anyway, I can connect the drive to my MacBook pro, and then connect my PC to that via my local network. So is there a way to get Thunderbolt 3 drives connected directly to my network that will then connect to my PC? I'm looking at the Akitio or the QNAP TB3 to 10gpe adapters...is that what I need? Is it possible? I tried a regular TB3 to ethernet adapter that I have from Belkin to my ethernet switch, and that didn't work. The drive didn't 'light up' like it was working.
