Thanks to the 40Gb/s interface, the devices we connect to it will be not slowed down and is great for using it along large displays at presentations or for viewing multimedia content, while on-the-go.
A cable routing channel is also available:
The underneath cable is routed in such a way so it won’t take extra space in our bag; the dock does also feature four small rubber screws, so it will stay fixed on the surface we will use it on:

The dock has performed exactly as advertised, no extra drivers or applications were needed on Windows 10 built 1803 and all was practically plug-and-play:
Sony TV connected as a secondary display
Speed test via cable, no extra latency was observed:
By testing the Bolt B80 SSD, we have obtained great speeds in the CrystalDiskMark benchmark utility:
