This docking station is a great alternative to the factory docking station. With the minimal footprint and angled position, the console no longer blocks my view of the bottom left corner of the TV screen. The built-in fan is silent during operation, although the noise can be heard in quiet rooms. Luckily it has a power switch so it can be turned off and not constantly draining power. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative to the clunky factory dock.
