If you've ever used one of these, you'll quickly discover that bigger is better. Most of us have a keyboard or mouse dongle, USB if you're lucky. Then you have to connect or charge things, so you quickly run out of USB ports. Or you have a dumb cross-shaped USB flash drive that can't have anything next to it, so you can't plug anything into any of your USB ports. As said, the more the better. The presence of the latest USB 3.0 technology also helps. Docks of this type work on both Macs and PCs. I have both and swap them back and forth occasionally depending on what I need. This is the first to have 4 USB ports as well as 2 HDMI ports, among other things. Since I have it on my Mac, most of the time I don't use HDMI because I have an old giant Mac monitor that uses other connectors. However, on my PC, that extra HDMI could come in handy. One reviewer had an issue with a short cord. Unfortunately, all docking ports of this type have shorter cables. This one is about the same as my other two. Works well and the price seems to match the extra ports.
