If you don't need super high resolutions, multiple external monitors on a MAC (Apple doesn't support multiple usb-c monitors on a single port, because they are Apple) or thunderbolt on any downstream device from the dock, why not just get a USB-C dock, rather than a thunderbolt one? USB-C docks are actually in your price range :D I'd recommend spending a while on this website and specifically and this article as a starting point (not fully up to date) Specifically this Anker one should be pretty neat since it supports USB 3.2 10Gbit/s for future proofing, 85W power delivery, SD card reader, HDMI with 4k60 support and even Ethernet. Good luck! If you have any questions, let me know and I'll be happy to help. Anker has a lot of docks in this space for a pretty fair price, and you may be able to find a good deal used. The SOHO Dock and OWC dock both fall into this category, and there is quite a bit of competition. If you do go searching again, looking for a 10Gbps USB-C dock would be a good route. I'm not too familiar with Dell and OWC's offerings, but from a cursory glance that they would both be compatible. USB hubs sometimes act strangely with our products, so it's best to avoid them when possible. To get all the USB devices plugged into the SOHO, you would need to use a USB hub to get more ports, which we do not generally recommend. Our SOHO Dock would be compatible, but it sounds like you already have more needs than it can provide.

Because of this, I'm inclined to suggest that you avoid a Thunderbolt 2 dock if you are using a recent macOS version or think you may upgrade the computer in the future. It appears that Apple's support for the standard is diminishing, so we cannot speak for how reliable the experience may be for you. It looks like your computer has Thunderbolt 3, so if you were hoping for your dock to charge your computer, a Thunderbolt 2 dock won't be able to do that.Īlso, this is a little anecdotal, but we have been seeing an increasing number of reports of macOS users on the latest OS version having difficulties getting their Thunderbolt 2 docks to work properly. First, Thunderbolt 2 is incapable of passing on power for charging to the host computer. There's a couple caveats with Thunderbolt 2 that you should be aware of. Instead, I'll try to provide some relevant insight that will hopefully better inform your decision.įirst, I see you're considering our TS2, a Thunderbolt 2 dock. I'll avoid suggesting an overt recommendation for you here, as there's a clear conflict of interest. Hi, I'm the CalDigit Social Media Manager. Would they still be worth considering/work with my mac?

My budget is ~60-80€ max! I narrowed my search down to 3 units, all used but in working condition.ĭell TB16 180w (needs the firmware update to work)Īlmost all of these are 5+ years old (except the soho, which is the most limited option). I have two apple usb-a to usb-c adapters, so I could connect the aufio interface via that. Here is a list of stuff I want to connect:ġx HDMI Monitor for dual screen 1x wireless keyboard (with mouse: logitech m590) 1x presonus audiobox USB 96 1x WD Elements 2TB Hard drive 1x HP envy 4504 I‘d also prefer an SD card slot since I work a lot with PCM recorders I have no monitor yet, but I know it’s not going to be anything 4K fancy stuff (probably an older used acer or something). I’m looking for a little USB-C/Thunderbolt dock for my home working environment. Disclaimer: I’m in no way a Tech guy, and I’ve tried to do my research the best I could.
