what docking station would you recommend for the Thinkpad E540

Search for the Lenovo USB3 docking station. There is a model with a single DVI port (0A33970) and another with two DVI ports (0A33971).

There is really only one. It is not the traditional "docking station" like you are used to however. Type in Lenovo One Link in the Amazon Search Bar, and that is what you can use.

No, X220 requires a different dock: http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-0A33932-Thinkpad-X220-Ultrabase/dp/B004W9BGMQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419015259&sr=8-1&keywords=x220+dock&pebp=1419015261831

Which docking stations do you have? I bought a Belkin wall plug thing from amazon. Three outlets and two USB chargers.

not sure what you mean by docking station, if you are just looking for additional storage look at http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-FreeAgent-GoFlex-External-STAM3000100/dp/B004E3XP42/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1355890846&sr=1-4&keywords=goflex or http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Backup-Portable-External-STBU1000100/dp/B00829THO6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1355890709&sr=8-1&keywords=seagate+amazon A

I can't speak directly for the ThinkPad Edge as I don't own one. I checked the Lenovo site for the specs on E545 and it lists the following:"Bluetooth 4.0 combination with WLAN"It's a straight Bluetooth mouse that will require drivers provided by Lenovo for the mouse itself. When I first installed this mouse with the supplied drivers, it would intermittently lose connection. Lenovo had an updated driver on the site and once installed, it worked perfectly. If it has Bluetooth, which it appears it does, then it should work fine.

I believe so. Check out HP site for information on which laptops with which docking stations.

My Latitude is an E6500. The information I have from people at work is that all Dell E-series Latitude notebook computers will work on this docking station. I have both the E-Dock and the E-Dock Plus and both work really well with my E6500.

I just got this and it does not work, based on the advice here. The docking connector does not even seem to be the right shape for my T420. Please advise.

Yes, Docking stations are not Operating System dependent. They simply extend the ports that are available on the notebook.

A laptop and docking station is not a good set up for the Fellowes Workstation. It works great with the standalone laptop. I am able to adjust the laptop screen to eye level.

no, I use it with my system (two dell laptops, both with ePort docking stations - one is a E7240, the other a E6410) - I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 right now but have also used Oracle Linus, Mint, and even Windows from time to time without any problems. Check your resolution for the second monitor - did you maybe pick a 16x9 instead of a 16x10 (or vice versa)?

Thanks everyone... I ended up ordering the EDD-D200BEGSTA which apparently is a universal dock.

I don't have that exact laptop, however I have other E-series laptops with 9 cell batteries (the ones that stick out from the back). The docking station will work with the 9 cell battery. There is a slider to adjust the guide for either the 6 or 9 cell battery.

Dell has a port replicator for this laptop. Additionally, you can use other generic docks/replicators from third party vendors.

No, the Lenovo Thinkpad Mini Dock Series 3 (433710U) is the docking station you need for the T430.

No. You will need an external USB dock that Lenovo makes, it's part number 0A33970 (ThinkPad USB 3.0 Dock). B590 notebook does not have neither traditional docking port, nor the new OneLink port that Lenovo uses on some of the lower-end ThinkPad models (E-series, for example). You can only use the USB port. Therefore, ThinkPad USB 3.0 Dock must be used. We checked this with Lenovo compatibility matrix.

The docking station has a whole chip with a power regulated switch. It allows for hot swap like a usb. But only the external hard drive slot.
