Thunderbolt 2 to USB 3.0?

    So I have an old iMac, which I'm now using as my main device, I keep all my music I DJ with on it, and every time I need to update my USBs it takes foooorever because it's USB 2.0....

    I've seen USB 3.0 HUBs that run off the Thunderbolt 2 input, but they're crazy money cuz they do a host of other things too (ethernet, multiple thunderbolt inputs etc)...

    I just literally want a USB 3.0 into the Thunderbolt 2 (old style) port... But searching online is tricky because google thinks I'm looking for a USB to USB-C adapter (new Thunderbolt).

    Any ideas where I might find something like this, that won't break the bank?
