Q: I have macbook pro with m1pro chip connected to the dock. If I drive monitor directly from the macbook it works fine. If I connect monitor to the 10Gbps slot on the side of the dock the monitor does not detect anything. Faulty device or operator error?

A: The USB-C 10Gbps port does not support video out. To have the HDMI and DP ports to function, you must connect both USB-C host connection to the macbook pro. Please use HDMI and DP cables, no conversions. The USB-C 10Gbps port, is to connect the #2 host cable for the M.2 NVMe to work on computers that only have (1) USB-C port. ** If you require further assistance; please contact the j5create Technical Support team and we will be glad to further assist if necessary. Thank you.

Q: How do you get the macbook to recognize the USB ports?

A: By downloading a drive but it most likely will be compatible.

Q: Does this work for mobile devices? Does it supply extra power to the M.2 port as other M.2 Enclosures say High powered device and it needs more power to function on those device that cannot supply enough power via USB-C port?

A: It can charge your device when you have already a powersource juicing it 100w or more to power the device itself and connect more storage capabilities on your windows or mac.

Q: Would this be compatible with a Microsoft Surface Laptop 3?

A: Sure if its windows why wouldnt it. I used for my xps 15

Q: I have the intel Macbook Pro 2020 and would like a dock that supports TWO monitors (NOT Mirrored Monitors but Dual Monitors) I'm guessing only a dock with 2 USB-c connections can pull that off. Will this one accomplish that?

A: If your MacBook Pro 2020 has (2) Thunderbolt 3 ports side by side, the Dock will be compatible with your computer and you will be able to have dual external displays in extend mode. Please make sure to use HDMI to HDMI cables and DP to DP cables. We cannot guarantee functionality with conversion cables. Thank you.
