When the number of devices you want to connect to your MacBook exceeds the number of available ports, it’s time to get a docking station. And on Amazon you can get a lot on a very good OWC dock. For today only, the OWC Thunderbolt Dock is on Amazon for $170, a savings of $80 off its usual MSRP of $250. And since it’s a lightning deal, quantities are limited, so act before time or inventory runs out.
This docking station connects to a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro via Thunderbolt/USB-C, and offers 10 ports: 3 Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports, 3 USB 3 Type-A (10 Gbps), 1 USB 2.0 type-A port, Gigabit Ethernet, an SD card reader and an audio input/output jack. That’s a lot of ports!
The docking station requires a 20V power adapter (included) and the port that connects to the MacBook provides 96W, which keeps the laptop battery charged. If you want to connect external displays, you can connect two 4K displays or one 5K/6K/8K display via Thunderbolt.
