Have recently bought a HP I7 15 inch laptop and looking at a docking station.
Looking at the docking station so dual monitors are permanently set up and I can easily remove the laptop for work purposes.
Any suggestions on a cheap option. Don’t need expansive graphics on monitor etc as my work is limited to the net and office.
Thanks!
Do you already have the dual monitors? If not, just get a super wide one and simplify the setup.
Dell's WD15 or WD19. Don't buy those cheap ones on eBay. I tried a few and some have bricked my USB and SD cards. Most use cheap caps which explode easily and will end up breaking your USB devices.
I have a WD19TB at work. It's good, but not many ports given the size and price and the connector is very loose into my Dell latitude. I guess I could exchange it.
Great thanks.. will look at these options
Hi guys,
any experience with Targus USB 3.0 Dual Video Smart Dock?
If your laptop has a Thunderbolt port I'd go that route over a USB 3 one based on my past experiences with USB 3 hub style "docks" including the Lenovo ones. But the best docks for me are the ones that you actually sit the laptop in and either have a connector on the laptops bottom or some the newer ones mostly now have a Thunderbolt port connection.
Lenovo thinkpad usb 3.0 docking station - bought on ebay second hand for $30 and works great with surface pro, desktop and work laptop (not all at once obviously!)
