I have three of these I’ve collected over the last 3 years, and none of them work anymore.

Is this the new USB-C future we were promised? With a single-point of failure for everything as the number of ports on laptop decreases year-on-year?

    I found the docks had their flaws, but on the whole they were a decent proposition, especially when sourced second hand.
    We did find that for units that the fans went mad on (1 in 20 or so), taking them apart, checking the fan connector, and removing the bottom rubber fixed it.

    The power-off-frames bug is infuriating. Thankfully, any decent managed switch prevents it.
