Review on πŸ’» Kensington USB 3.0 Dual Display Docking Station for Windows, Mac OS, Surface Pro & Surface Laptop - Enhanced Connectivity and Versatile Display Expansion (K33997WW), Black by Andrew Britton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Poor power supply to hard drive.

All I have a keyboard, mouse, ethernet, HDMI and the laptop itself. everything you would expect from a regular computer. I don't even charge my phone. But as soon as I plug in a 1TB drive, I get a Windows connected/disconnected signal about every three seconds. I had to unplug the hard drive and plug it into the laptop itself, which I feel defeats the purpose of a docking station. Kensington, if you can't make a dock that will power a simple hard drive, either make fewer ports or increase performance.

Pros
  • Type A USB Universal Dock works with USB-A laptops and Surface Pro 7/6/5/4 Surface Laptop 3/2 and earlier MacBooks (Mac OS 10 14 and later) with USB-A port. The USB-A cable (included) from your laptop to the dock provides full connectivity, so your displays and peripherals can stay at home or in the office - just connect a USB-A cable and you're good to go.
Cons
  • Compatibility
