    Satechi does a terrible job of specifying what this dock can and cannot do.

    But they advertise it for 2 screens on Macbooks, which means it will very likely built like the Plugable https://plugable.com/products/tbt4-udz.

    And that dock needs 2 separate DP connections via TB in order to drive all 4 display outputs.

    And AMD’s USB4 implementation only offers a single DP connection, not 2, so only half of the ports can be active at a time.

      So if I understand correctly, the other dock linked (the lenovo one) will work with AMD TB4 and 3 screens, since all screens are on the same MST.

      Is that correct ?
