That is a USB4 cable which is compatible with Thunderbolt 4, but it's not a true Thunderbolt 4 cable.

That article seems to focus more on TB4 vs USB-C, however I see these statements:
"The Thunderbolt™ 4 standard requires a total bandwidth of 40 Gbps, which it dynamically allocates between data and video for all devices on a single connection. Compared to the variable speeds of USB4, this requirement ensures that connections are always delivering peak file transfer speeds to support productivity, gaming, and content creation."
"PCIe connectivity is not supported by USB 3 and is optional for USB4, whereas Thunderbolt™ 4 offers the most flexibility in which devices you can connect."
So, if I see USB4 cable with 40Gbps and PCIe support, then it is basically TB4-compliant.

I haven't had any issues with my USB 4 cables and TB3 accessories, but eGPUs and some devices might be pickier.

It's almost maddening.
I'm currently using it to connect a Belkin Thunderbolt 3 dock to my HP Thunderbolt 4 laptop. So far, no issues at all.

Yes, Thunderbolt can be used to transfer files between two Macs, offering a significantly faster alternative to Wi-Fi. This is achieved through a feature called Thunderbolt Bridge, which creates a direct, high-speed peer-to-peer network connection between the two Mac.
"
figured it out.. first you have to enable network sharing on the folder or drive you want to transfer... (super easy just check how to do that withchat gpt)...
2nd step.. don't do the copy paste with windows method (super slow because of how it handles small files).. use robocopy insted... multithreaded. (my machine could handle 32 threads but u can experiment if yours cant.
in terminal:
robocopy "path to remote folder you want to copy" "path to folder on your machine" /MT:32 /E /R:0 /W:0
this will get extremely fast tranfser, I did a 160GB folder in 2 minutes."
It's for SSDs, external GPUs, docks, etc that require the higher speed.
Fair enough!
