The Thunderbolt Gigabit adapter was buggy with Mountain Lion, but is equally buggy with Mavericks. When the adapter is used, these are typical:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine frequently does not wake up. This happens even if the Thunderbolt adapter has been unplugged while the machine was awake, or unplugged while sleeping.<\/li>\n<li>Machine frequently tries to wake up, after about a minute, it kernel panics, and spontaneously reboots, and files a report with Apple.<\/li>\n<li>If the power nap feature is enabled, things get nastier. On at least one occasion, I found my machine going full blast and rather hot in the morning with a fully bright screen displaying a large broken folder. Console indicates machine woke up and tried to make a network connection, and failed where it should have succeeded. All downhill after that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In summary, light use of the adapter causes two or more forced reboots and kernel panics per week both with Mountain Lion and Mavericks. I will be filing this with Apple bug reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a92014 EthnoSync.com.
