Also suggest a support ticket to confirm that assumption as aggregation is not possible on the Windows side.


PC's can certainly Aggregate Quantum units. It's done via the Driver. The only company to provide stackable Thunderbolt Interfaces, that I'm aware of. The units need to be chained together with TB cables. First unit connected to computer, 2nd unit connected to 2nd port of the 1st unit.

PC #2: ASUS X299 Prime Deluxe II, i7-7820X 8c/16t, 16GB 2666 MHz DDR4, GTX 1060 3GB, Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2 SSD (Win10 Pro), Samsung 860 EVO SATA SSD (Win11 Pro), OWC Aura 512GB NVMe M.2, 2 x 1TB HDD

Hi Jeff

Thank you for all your help, all is well and after downloading you pdf on the monitoring ,it seems i now have a firm handle on everything......turns out i never fully understood the concept,but thanks to you i am a happy man.

low cpu,no latency, and loving the Quantums now.....regarding the linking of the Quantums they are linked via Thunderbolt cables.

in the manual they show you how to hook up the quantums if you wanna two or more on windows, it is also some kind of an aggregate system ,...very confusing as i know Windows does not support the Aggregate protocol.

Thank you once again Jeff, i hope you have a great day

Great Mark.
Support tell me that daisy-chained Quantums just add the extra I/O to the list of I/O inside S1 no aggregation required.

Hi Jeff, that wasn't the case in my part, maybe you Windows guys have it better than the mac crowd...unless i was doing something wrong .....again....wouldn't surprise me... but that was the only way i could get it working properly , according to the manual...

if there is a way to just daisy chain them without using the Aggregate method, pls let me know. It would be hugely appreciated
