Any docking station recommendations? I have a current model maxed out MBP 16” and have been meaning to merge it with my aging Mac Mini dual monitor setup.

- adamparsons 4y agoIf you can afford the caldigit, it’s a premium unit but seriously good and quite popular.
- skrtskrt 4y agoIt gets REALLY hot though which sketches me out. Also the USB ports put out hardly any power if you’re hoping to charge from them, it can even keep up with light phone usage.
- loloquwowndueo 4y agoI looked at the Caldigit but had some reservations based on online reviews. Ultimately a coworker recommended a Dell WD19S and specifically said to look for one on eBay - took about a week of hunting and bidding but I scored one for about half retail and have been quite happy with it, it just works all the time. The laptop in question is a Dell xps13 running Ubuntu 20.04.

- jjcm 4y agoI use this dock along with a 5120x1440 monitor as my main docked environment. Had absolutely zero issues: https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/owc-thunderbolt-dock https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/owc-thunderbolt-dock Bought it four times now (two cities, one setup for each myself and my partner). Neither of us have had an issue with any.
