Having purchase a 10 port Wavlink's USB 3.0 port hub in the past, which I have been completely satisfied with, I began to research if they made a USB-C docking station for my father's new Dell XPS 15 laptop. I compared a few different brands, but ultimately decided that for the price, it's hard to beat this Wavlink USB-C docking station/hub. It has an incredible number of ports: 12 individual ports. More than most people will ever utilize! Here is a brief summary that I wrote up of all ports: 1. USB-C Power Delivery Port - Can ONLY be used for Power (not for USB-C input). Offers power delivery up to 100W with an external charger. 2. DisplayPort v1.2a (4K @ 30hz) 3. HDMI v1.4b (4K @ 30hz) 4. VGA port (2K @ 60hz) 5. USB 2.0 6. USB 2.0 7. USB 3.0 8. USB 3.0 9. RJ45 Ethernet Port (Gigabit Connection) 10. SD card reader 11. Micro SD/TransFlash (TF) card reader 12. 3.5mm Audio Jack (for Headphones/Speakers) What has been impressive is that this unit stays very cool, which is very important for someone like me, who uses this docking station near other devices that dissipate heat. I have used this to run two monitors which is excellent.

Handles 12-24TB HDDs without issues (my old dock was hit or miss with any drives equal to or larger than 12TB). USB-C 10Gbps is a welcome upgrade over old 5Gbps when using 2.5" SSDs.

NIB...instructions was easy to follow instructions. Best thing.....it WORKS!!! All 3 27 inch monitors for the home workstation will get the job done. Low profile design works for what I need to get everything lined up and working right away. I think from opening the box and setting up the monitors total time 15 minutes from start to finish. Windows picked up the hub and simple setup to get the monitor flow set correctly. No additional drivers needed.





- Quiet fan. - Drives report about 10° C cooler than inside the desktop. - Running a variety of drives from 1 TB to 18 TB with no problem.




Works perfectly for my new Dell Inspiron 2in1. I was expecting some issues given the Inspiron is outside the support matrix of the wd19tb, but it’s all working fine. Even the dock’s power button can power up the Inspiron with the lid closed, and the Inspiron is also charging fine via dock’s thunderbolt power delivery.

Works like a champ and is a true plug and play device.



- much smaller than the regular docking stations I had before - 11 slots for USB A and C, VGA and HDMIs

Set up was easy, it connected to my monitors right away. Provides enough power to charge my Lenovo P1 Gen2 while running dual 27" monitors as well.

Worked with Rog Strix G16. Charges laptop and displayed on dual monitor set-up. Uses USB-C to connect to laptop making barrel port unnecessary. Small metal box construction is nice.

Small, light, lots of connections, it works.
