On an iMac with 1 Thunderbolt port, how to have an external monitor and an external HDD work? I can't use the USB port because it's 2.0, it will be too slow (the external HDD is a SSD). I understand the display needs to go last, because it's actually mini-displayport. But what about the HDD? I can't find a single external HDD that has 2 Thunderbolt ports (one IN, one OUT). So how are you supposed to daisy chain things?
