Q: QuestionI have a 3-monitor setup for my X1 carbon laptop using the ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen 2 and want to alternate between my laptop and a desktop - is this mini desktop compatible with the ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen 2? And if not, is there another dock that works?

Asked 3 months ago by kbimh824.

• A:Answer Hey kbimh824, Based on the specifications for the USB-C port on this IdeaCentre Mini, it should work just fine with your ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen 2. Although for disclosure, this IdeaCentre isn't listed on the compatibility matrix for this model Dock. This is most likely due to this IdeaCentre Mini not being tested with this specific dock, as the docking stations are most commonly used with laptops.
