Yes the startech adapter will work and it the best way to achieve this.

I do exactly what you are looking for.

I use an external Port Replicator to achieve that goal.

It connects to the USB 3.0 connection and provides 2 HDMI outs, Network and 5 additional USB ports.
It has its own power supply and does not draw power from the laptop.

Currently I am using the Dell 3.0 4K Port Replicator - but I am sure there are others out there.
