Keep your notebook and tablet ready for mobile use with the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s dedicated 90W power delivery Thunderbolt host port. You can also keep devices powered/charging on the other two Thunderbolt and four USB ports. Whether you’re taking a break or are done for the day, the Thunderbolt Go Dock continues to power and/or charge connected devices.
Many of today’s computers and tablets either don’t provide a network port (ugh…slow low-quality Wi-Fi) or feature the older 1Gb/s standard. Now you can transfer, copy, and/or edit files and work up to 2.5x faster over wired networks and enjoy increased productivity in an IP-based workflow with the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s 2.5Gb/s Ethernet port. Or, connect to a NAS for faster data access, backup, and 4K video streaming and editing.4
With MDM compatibility, OWC Docks make Mobile Device Management a breeze. Remote manage Go Dock empowered workstations across your organization. Other docks without MDM just don’t cut it.
Another “one less thing to carry” benefit for you is the built-in SD card reader. Video footage and photos are a part of daily life, and the Thunderbolt Go Dock lets you ingest your creative content conveniently fast. You can also use the reader like an external drive and store or backup files at will.
Transform a single Thunderbolt into dual Thunderbolt ports with the OWC Thunderbolt Go Dock. Take advantage of extra Thunderbolt ports to connect multiple Thunderbolt / USB-C drives, devices and SSDs to experience the fastest speed your devices can deliver. Utilize multiple daisy-chains to connect even more with your Go Dock empowered workflow.
Having a built-in power supply with your Thunderbolt Go Dock keeps your life simple. With one less power brick in your desktop setup, there’s less clutter for cleaner cable management. When mobile with another dock, if you lost its power brick, you are dead in the water. If you happen to misplace the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s standard and common 2-prong "figure 8" power cord, you likely already have one you can “borrow” from another device or can easily stop in at a local store for a replacement and keep working.
Nowadays, there are so many different kinds of wires and connections. Watch as Michelle from Rocket Yard explores what’s what.
I really like how Apple is presenting Thunderbolt as “Thunderbolt / USB 4“ on its latest Macs. You see, Thunderbolt 4 finally promises PC/Windows users all the features Thunderbolt 3 has long offered Apple users.
Take all the guesswork out of identifying the cables you need for your technology setup with these backward-compatible cables that replace Thunderbolt 3 cables.
Safely disconnect multiple drives in a single click. OWC Dock Ejector was designed by OWC hardware and software engineers to ensure all data is written before disconnection, saving time and protecting against data loss. It makes losing your hard-earned work a thing of the past.

Active workspaces expose gear to bumps, shoves, or even the random tail wag from a pet. OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilizers (sold separately) screw into the OWC Dock or OWC Drive housing to reduce – if not completely eliminate – cable strain on Thunderbolt and USB-C connections so you can work with confidence even in the highest traffic environments.
