So all of these ports integrate with the laptop via a single USB 3 port?! I'm surprised there is enough bandwidth for all of the external ports.

USB3.0 has a surprising amount of potential.
These sort of docks aren't a new concept, but there aren't many out there.
HP sells a universal dock that works the same way though.


 


Most people using this will be doing so in an office environment. So keyboard, mouse, and a headset are all that i have at my desk. None of those will equal up to even 1% of USB 3.0 bandwidth.

The monitor is the major bandwidth hog, also an external hard drive could slow things down as well.
