Product: Elitebook 840 G5

I will soon be starting a new job and my new employers have provided me with an Elitebook 840 G5 (purchased in the UK).

 

In my home office, I have two monitors that I had setup with my previous laptop and I want to be able to use my Elitebook in the same way. However, I'm really struggling to find out what would be the best docking station to use.

 

I've found several similar posts on here  but they all seem to be from a few years ago and the links are either dead or the products they refer to are no longer available. I've also found a number of products that would appear to be compatible but then in the product reviews, there are comments from people saying it didn't work with their Elitebook 840 G5.

 

Ideally I'd like a dock that could connect to the docking port that's on the Elitebook, but I have no issue going with USB-C if that's currently the best option.

 

I would be hugely grateful for any advice, especially from anyone who owns an Elitebook 840 G5 and uses it with a dock.

 

Thanks

In case anyone else is wondering, I purchased the HP D9Y32AA from Amazon (~£25) and it works just fine.

 

The only issue I have is the appalling sound quality (hissing, crackling, etc), but I'll start another post for that.
