Thunderbolt Share allows the same peripheral and file sharing, backup, and migration capabilities as the Linux USB4 protocol, but with an official GUI and somewhat more limited compatibility thanks to a required Thunderbolt Share certification. The software is currently available to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.intel.com\/content\/www\/us\/en\/download\/822291\/thunderbolt-share.html\" target=\"_blank\">download from Intel directly<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Thunderbolt Share works with a direct PC-to-PC connection as well as in cases where two systems are connected via an accessory, like a dock, hub, or monitor. Additionally, only one device in the chain needs to be Thunderbolt Share licensed. There is a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thunderbolttechnology.net\/thunderboltshare\/?findProducts=1\" target=\"_blank\">list of Thunderbolt Share licensed products<\/a> on a website hosted by Intel, although it currently appears to be limited to a handful of MSI laptops, nine ASUS, HP, and Lenovo pre-built desktops and DIY motherboards, a smattering of Thunderbolt docks and hubs, an ASUS Thunderbolt 5 expansion card, and a Sparkle Thunderbolt 5 eGPU dock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following the recent release of the Intel USB4Stream protocol enabling direct PC-to-PC file and peripheral sharing on Linux,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":473745,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[61,60,80],"class_list":["post-473744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/473744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=473744"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/473744\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/473745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=473744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=473744"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=473744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
