Targus USB 3.0 Super Speed Dual Video Docking Station for PC/Mac/Windows (ACP70EU)

4 screens on my laptop, does what it says, works well, highly recommended.

Easy to set up and use

I bought this to let me share my new Windows 8 laptop across two fairly large DVI monitors that I already owned, rather than having to work on a laptop and single screen of different sizes. It arrived in a very battered package, so I was somewhat nervous about whether it would work. Eventually, though, I got everything plugged in and after some fiddling around and installing updated drivers from the Targus website, I got the setup as I wanted it as the included HDMI-to-DVI adaptor allowed me to use two DVI screens. The only hiccup since then happened when one day it refused to display in its normal setup, but rebooting everything seemed to solve that problem. So this gets 4 out of 5 because it works and has solved the problem I faced when swapping from a desktop with graphics card that could run two monitors to a standard laptop. But I wonder if anyone at the company has done any usability testing, as the setup process could definitely do with an improvement. For this price, I expect that aspect to be better. UPDATE: This failed a month or so after the warranty ran out. After running through the (not-very-clear) instructions sent to me by the manufacturer, I eventually got it to work again. That revised setup lasted about another couple of months and it hasn't worked since. Nothing had changed on my laptop setup so this is down to the docking station. As above, for this price I would expect something better and so I've taken a star off. A great idea in theory but not very good implementation or usability.

The video and network do not work at all on Windows 8. The usb hub is ok, but 90 pounds for a hub is too much for me. I return it

I have dual monitors and two input cables (i bought a spare one) so I can have one setup for my work laptop and my gaming pc. I have multiple USB inputs but use an extender up to my desk and this dock allows me to tailor my home office needs and simply swap one cable to switch from pc to laptop

Been using these at work for years to connect laptops or desktops to dual monitors via usb for hot desking. Such a simple solution. Occasional issues with mac compatibility due to a recent driver update but simple interim fix is to go Finder > Application > DisplayLink Manager > (right click) Show Package Contents > Contents > MacOS and run the DisplayLinkUserAgent. For some reason it won't manually run on some Macs so let it deploy the script and just minimise the terminal window.

This dock has a great selection of ports, and adaptors to allow connection via VGA, HDMI or DVI. Works a treat with my Win 7 laptop.

I've had 2 now, both died in less than a year. The internal USB hub keeps working but the video and ethernet (the intelligent bits) both die in under a year. don't buy it unless you want a very expensive USB hub.

Excel·lent sincronització i ús amb el portàtil Sony Vaio Pro13. Permet una bona comunicació entre els perifèrics: impressora, disc durs, pantalla addicional, escàner, etc.

Comme pour l'autre solution Targus USB3! Ideal pour Ultrabook... Et permet de charger des accessoires (Téléphone, Tablette...) même PC éteint! le tout avec un seul adaptateur secteur!

Ho faticato per trovare la soluzione ideale al mio Laptop che non prevede una docking station. Ho finalmente risolto il problema di dover connettere tutti cavi al PC tutte le volte che mi trovo alla scrivania evitando soprattutto il rischio di rompere i pin del cavo del secondo monitor nella connessione e trovarmi un danno superiore al costo della docking in oggetto. Utilissima per alzare il PC per facilitare lo scambio termico.

Ich habe an meinem neuen Ultrabook nur sehr wenige Anschlüsse für externe Geräte. Genau genommen NUR zwei USB-3-Anschlüsse und einen Mini-HDMI-Port an dem ich mittels eines (nicht vorhandenen) Adapters einen zweiten Monitor anschließen könnte. In den ersten USB-3-Port stöpsele ich nun die neue Dockingstation und alle Wünsche werden wahr: Externer USB-3-BluRay-Brenner, größeres Keyboard, Maus, externe Festplatte, LAN, Lautsprecher, USB-Sat-Receiver; alles auf einmal anschließbar und funktioniert problemlos. Ich kann jetzt noch einen HDMI- und eine VGA-Monitor oder Beamer anschließen, dann sind noch immer ein USB-2- und ein USB-3-Port verfügbar. Das hat richtig Klasse! Außerdem nimmt die Station aufgrund der kompakten Bauweise auch nicht viel Platz auf dem Schreibtisch ein. Bin sehr zufrieden.

Je suis étonné que tout ça puisse passer par un port usb 3.0. Cela fonctionne très bien et avec windows 7 c'est un vrais plaisir de voir que tout se reconnecte au targus automatiquement. Le seul et gros problème c'est des déconnexions intempestives partielles ou totales des différents ports du targus. Obligé de redémarrer le targus en le débranchant. L'alimentation est particulière et n'est pas robuste. Elle d'ailleurs finie par griller à force de le brancher et de le rebrancher. C'est très dommage car sinon c'est un bon produit.
