Hi, The ▪ Mini DisplayPort Plug is the same thing as the thunderbolt cable. Its whats connected to it that determines whether it acts like a thunderbolt or a ▪ Mini DisplayPort device. This was a bit of a surprise when I got my first mac mini! Also they weren't very clear about making a distinction about them in the manual. Does it show up as a drive choice when you run "Disk Utility"? HTH Chuck
