Does not work with latest Mac OS
Bought the docking station a few years back and it worked great until.... I updated my Mac. Currently my external mouse and keyboard work, but the external monitor stopped sharing the screen. Very disappointed there has not been an updated driver to fix the issue.

    OK but no power pass through
    Ports are numerous but the lack of a way to charge a laptop directly through the dock is a game breaker.

    Never an issue
    I bought this 3 years ago and it is a champ I've taken it to many university housing situations and used it with multiple laptops, monitors and a tv screen on one occasion. I constantly have 3, 720p monitors hooked up to it and it runs like butter. I keep my mouse, keyboard, optical drive and aux speakers hooked up to it and the run smoothly at all times I have never had any problems with it. I hooked it up to my 4k tv once and my video feed was a little slower than usual but I'm pretty sure that was because my old laptop didn't have the processing power for 4k. This is one of the best products I have ever owned as a engineering university student. This product doesn't stand out in any way and that's what is great about it. hook anything up to it and it just work as if it was plugged right into your computer.

    Not just for Laptops
    I work from home and also in the office...but I don't have a laptop. My work is mostly document-based, with spreadsheets and cloud-based things. The only video I do is an occasional YouTube clip here and there. I have a small form-factor desktop PC with an Intel i3 series CPU. On this hardware (running Windows 10) this thing works brilliantly. It allows me to move easily between office and home office. When I want to switch locations, I just un-do one AC power connection and one USB cable and I'm out the door. Connecting at the other location is just as simple - in two minutes I'm back online and working. If your intent is to use one of these docking stations with a system that is NOT a laptop, there are a couple things to watch out for: 1) Many PCs will not boot if there is no keyboard connected when you switch them on. I had to make one change to my PC BIOS to get around this issue. After that one little change, everything worked perfectly for me. 2) It is VERY important to install the DisplayLink drivers BEFORE connecting this unit for the first time. I did this, connected my three monitors and all other peripherals through the StarTech docking station and then disconnected the monitor from the PC. Then I re-arranged my monitor settings in the Windows 10 control panel and all was well. I haven't had to connect a monitor to my PC directly since then. Video performance is perfectly adequate for general purpose computing, but is NOT fast and I noticed a small performance hit overall in my system running this unit. Neither of these things are deal-breakers for me. I expected some performance penalty once I connected this device, but it isn't a real hindrance to me at all. I might wait one second longer for applications to load - not a huge deal. Many PC docking stations will do dual monitors but I haven't found any others that will do three. That is what makes this product so essential to me. You're not going to game on this device - don't have unreasonable expectations and I think you'll really appreciate it. I can't speak to Mac compatibility, but (again) I'd suggest not having unreasonable expectations.

    3 Working Monitor Setup
    Super fast shipping. This device works great. My laptop is now connected to 3 monitors with the plenty of additional usb slots for additional peripheral devices. Great product

    MacOS 10.15 compatibility
    That's perfect device that I used for couple months with my MacOS and dual 27" ViewSonic monitors without any issues. Now new MacOS 10.15 'Catalina' has arrived. I did the update of the driver to 5.2.1 Beta 2 and got two black monitors. MacOS detects them well, but nothing more. If I switched on/off a monitor, "No signal' message raises.

    Great customer service and support!!!
    I brought USB3DOCKH2DP in dutch webshop BOL.COM, I connected 3 monitors to this dock, but 1 of the monitor keep falling-off and restart. First I thought the cable is broken, so I ordered new display-port cable, the issue was not solved by using new cable. So I called customer service and support StarTech.com, they asked some info's and copy of invoice then they offers to replace right away. Afther 1 week I received new dock and all works well now. Again thank you very much for the support.

    Works like a charm with MacBook Air
    I bought this to run a MacBook Air with dual HP 23" monitors using displayport cables. This is the only USB 3 - dual displayport dock i could find that was declared compatible with the latest versions of OSX. The network and additional USB ports are a bonus and also worked properly. I had already installed the displaylink driver on the Air, so when I plugged in the dock it was basically plug and play. The Air recognized two separate monitors immediately and put them to work. Obviously you are limited by the configuration options on the Air, and the extra graphics load on the computer will slow things down if you try to work it too hard. The specs from Apple says that the Air is only capable of running one external monitor at native resolution, but this dock is an easy way to go past that as long as you are not trying to work the computer too hard. Overall, this is a perfect option for docking a Mac.
