Thank you for your question! The HP Elite Mini 800 G9 Desktop PC has a SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 20Gbps signaling rate. A SuperSpeed USB Type-C 20Gbps signaling rate is compatible with Thunderbolt, but the actual performance might vary. While both technologies use the same USB-C connector, Thunderbolt 3 has a higher data transfer rate of up to 30Gbps, compared to USB-C's 20Gbps. However, USB-C devices, including those supporting SuperSpeed USB 20Gbps, can be connected to Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports, but their performance will be limited by the USB-C's 20Gbps speed. To see if your hardware is compatible, contact the manufacturer's website for system requirements.
