Doc for new MacBook suggestion

Post by dang47 »

Hello, my new MacBook Pro will arrive soon, what is everyone using for a doc? I was looking at the Belkin, seems pricy for only 3 USB ports. I was wondering do the docs have enough power to run my Push2 controller, Rolli Seabaord and another USB breakout box for my dogles?

What about the Ethernet port? What would I use that for ? Can I connect my Motu 624 in the Ethernet port ?

With only 4 TB ports in the MacBook I was thinking Doc (power) in one port, Glyph SSD raid in second, Motu 642 in third and extra monitor in fourth.......

Suggestions ?

Thanks

Daniel
