Docking Solutions for the Lenovo ThinkPad T400s
The T400s uses a "Series 3" dock that is not compatible with previous versions. Specs for the 2 docks are annoying to find, and hard to compare.
Here's my summary table:
| Feature | ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3 (4337-10U) | ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 (4338-10U) |
| USB Ports | 6 | 6 |
| Video (any 2 can be used simultaneously) | VGA, DVI-D, DP | VGA, 2 x DVI-D, 2 x DP |
| Audio | Analog microphone in, headphone out | |
| e-SATA storage | 0 | 1 |
| RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet | 1 | 1 |
Both have Kensington cable locks, ship with 90w adapter, 1yr warranty. The DVI-D ports DO NOT support the attachment of a DVI-D to VGA adapter.
