Review: Works for Latitude 7400 and MS Surface Pro 7 - This is my first docking station, which I bought along (with some other peripherals) in an attempt to upgrade my home office. The device is encased in aluminum, which provides a much better look and feel than plastic. The ports are well placed on both sides of the unit, and there are plenty for my current needs. Primarily I planned to use it with my work laptop, a Dell Latitude 7400. I used the cable that came in the box to connect the Thunderbolt port of the Dell to the Host 2 port of the dock. I had a 32" LG monitor on the HDMI 2 port, and various other peripherals connected to the USB ports (keyboard, mouse, microphone, USB stick, and a wireless phone charger). The PC connected to all devices with no issue, and I didn't have to supply any power to the docking station other than what was coming from the laptop via the Host 2 port. Great! That's exactly what I was hoping for. My other computer is a Microsoft Surface Pro 7. I tried connecting the USB-C port of the Surface to the Host 2. Initially, it recognized all of the peripherals, but not the monitor, which was a huge disappointment. I started to think about returning the docking station, to be honest. But - to make a long story short - I updated all of the drivers on the Surface, and that seemed to do the trick. It worked perfectly after that. I did purchase a 65W USB-C power adapter and plugged that into the power input of the dock. Now I no longer need to use the power adapters that came with my PCs, and I can just charge them through the docking station. And when I want to switch computers, I just have to disconnect the USB-C cable from one PC and plug it into the other - that's it. It's important to note that the Host 1 port of the docking station only drives the HDMI 1 - no other ports. This worked as expected with both computers, but this use case didn't interest me. I don't own an SSD to make use of that feature, but I plan to get one in the future. I will update this review when I do.
Review: Updated - Dead after 5 months! Lots of fine print! Verify compatibility! - Two weeks into waiting for Utech's support to get back to me on a warranty claim. Zip, nada, nothing. Well, it's September, and the unit is dead. No power to the MacBook at all, can't use the dual displays, no Time Machine to the SSD, nothing works. Lasted only five months. Pros: lots of different ports, USB 2, 3, and C. SSD seems to work well. Small package. Well built. Cons: check the compatibility of the video. I have a 2018 MacBook Pro, and I couldn't even get two monitors to work properly using the HDMI connections. Would only mirror, not extend, and my big expensive 35" widescreen monitor was limited to 1080p. Apparently if your MacBook is using the Intel graphics chipset you're basically hosed. I ended up using one of the laptops USB-C ports use a mini-displayed adapter, and was able to use one of the HDMI ports on the dock for the 2nd monitor. I can recommend it for the variety of ports and the SSD, but if the 4-monitor option is what you need, beware the fine print!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have an older macbook with  two thunderbird 2 (tb2) ports.  if i use a tb2 to usb c will this work extended display on dual monitors?**
A: No it def wont work. The only thing I know for sure that will work with your tb1 or tb2 is a device made for a single connection with no hub like an external self powered GPU case. If you adapt the TB1/2 to a usb c TB3, and it needs to be adapted to TB3 for bidirectional support not just a basic usb 3.0 connection that its the usb c format, and connect that to an eGPU unit it will work just only at tb1/2 speeds which is still plenty to give your older mac a ton of graphics power to to all kinds of things you couldnt before. I just did a ton of upgrades on my 2011 macbook pro and actually got it updated to the latest OS using work arounds but now its to intensive with all the new features and the graphical interface draws so much I need to connect an external gpu to take that load off of the weak internal gpu and the processor to make it run smooth again. Your other choice is to pay a ton for a TB1/2 dock that was designed to connect directly to the original TB ports and that will work and can give you some faster usb ports and allow you to connect a monitor or two but nothing too crazy. The thunderbolt 1/2 to hdmi adapter also works to connect a single monitor I haven't tried with multiple. Basically either spend the $150-$200 for an old tb 1/2 hub that will give you multiple connections or just get an egpu and run an external gpu form the tb port. Thats what youre going to get the most performance from anyway. The egpu units are expnensive though but now I have no choice cuz im too deep. I spent too much time  and money getting to monterey to just stop not when the egpu will solve my problems and let me run all the new features with no issues.

**Q: Does this support displaylink for macbook air m1 multiple external displays?**
A: Yes it does you have to buy the usb plug separately

**Q: I purchased an m.2 1 tb pny cs2130 nvme and its not going into the slot. the pins align but do not go in. whats the deal?**
A: I don't believe you can use an NVME in this enclosure. I purchased this drive:

https://www.amazon.com/Blue-NAND-2TB-SSD-WDS200T2B0B/dp/B073SBW3VD/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=WDS200T2B0B&qid=1621263397&s=hi&sr=1-1

And it is working without issue (except it isn't as fast as I thought it would be).

**Q: Can I use host 2 to charge my 2nd laptop? I noticed it is only charging host 1 laptop not host 2. same keyboard & mouse for both host 1 & 2?**
A: If you have it plugged into power via USB type C then yes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Double USB-C doesn't fit, SSD doesn't work - Just an expensive dongle.
*by P***X on February 10, 2021*

*Update. Worked with customer support. They really helped me with a video. All works perfectly now. I have asked questions to no response - and the only support available is through Amazon reps vs the manufacturer. I ordered this product with high hopes. The computer I have has the dual ports, is directly listed as approved etc - well - The double USB C cable is a few millimeters off from fitting into my dual USB -C ports on the computer - so that is out... Moving on - at least If I can use Host 2 only - and get to use the SSD - its not just an expensive dongle - Well - no go. I purchased the recommended WD Blue SSD that the manufacturer links too in the description. I have tried every which way to get it to recognize the SSD through the host 2 connection to my laptop... nothing. I already have an SSD in my computer - and have used an external SSD - I did get the SATA version from WD - I cannot find any settings - I followed the instructions exactly - Either the SSD is DOA or the hub is defective. Since I cannot troubleshoot with the manufacturer - and cant just guess - I need to send it all back and start over.
