Ancient Thunderbolt 2 to USB 3

Avatar Richard I
The USB ports on my 2015 MBP are heavily used and are showing signs of wear. The Thunderbolt 2 ports are pristine! Is there a dock or adapter out there that I could use to take the strain off the built in USB ports?

Does anyone have a Thunderbolt 2 dock or adapter to USB in a drawer they would like to sell me?


Thanks
Richard

I have tried to find one of those and had no luck. To over come the problem I bought a second hand LaCie Rugged Drive with a Thunderbolt 2 connector and following a video on YouTube I dismantled it removed the old hard drive and replaced it with a SSD and now use as Time Machine freeing up a USB port

Hmm, an interesting idea...

Perhaps what I am looking for is another example of 'Hens Teeth"
