StarTech.com has announced the release of a new USB 3.0 Laptop Docking Station (USB3SDOCKHDV), which enables users to add HDMI and DVI-D, or HDMI and VGA dual video, as well as audio and Gigabit Ethernet connections to a laptop through a single USB 3.0 port.

The universal docking station allows laptops and Ultrabooks to be connected to peripherals such as monitors, keyboards and mice through a single USB port unlike manufacturer-specific laptop docks, which require that users’ laptops connect through a proprietary dock connector. This release adds to StarTech.com’s broad range of universal laptop docking stations, which provide users with an efficient and convenient way to transition between a fully mobile environment and a static workstation, especially in the case of workplaces that rely on hot-desking or hotelling desk space.

Dual display connectivity: HDMI and DVI-D or HDMI and VGA

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
