    I don't know if this is a good deal of not but surely if they wanted to make a superior product then they could have added some type of internal storage as it is a portable device?

    They could have done, the only thing is that SSDs can use quite a bit of the available bandwidth leaving less available for the ports on the dock. Depending on which ones and how many you use simultaneously their performance and/or that of the external ssd would be affected. I use an external ssd as an external boot drive on a Mac, and where possible I make it the only device on that particular TB4 port, so the bandwidth is not shared.

    I'm sure this was £329.99 a couple of years ago. Strange times.

    I actually found this didn't play well with my Titan Ridge 2.0 card. Worked on hot plugin, but wouldn't work on boot or resume. Absolutely fine with my TB4 and TB3 laptops though.

    Most TB devices such as external hard drives, SD cards, network adapters are bottle-necked and will give maximum speed on TB3 docks (which are much cheaper at almost 30% of the price of TB4 docks). So a TB4 dock is for very specific people/use case, a TB3 dock will work just as well.

    You can also get a manufacturer refurbished TS3+ dock direct from Caldigit for £179.99.
