Hi, i'm looking to buy a docking station. the B005DS.
It seems to be available in two version, a 'standard' and NF (non flash).
I have determined that 'flash' refers to a flash drive, but can't find any explanation of the difference that makes to the device's capability.
Can anyone tell me , or post a link to somewhere that says what the practical difference is between the two models .
Thanks

Thanks for getting back to me. I was going by what is written on the actual box "Model: HSA B005DS"
But as per the list you gave, I simply want to know the practical difference between
- HP USB-C™ Universal Dock Non-flash Versio…………………………………………. 3DV65AA
- HP USB-C™ Universal Dock………………………………………………………………………………………. 1MK33AA
What does one do that the other doesn't?
Does the 1MK33AA have "flash" and if so what is it?
If 3dv65AA does not have flash, does that make it somehow worse, or better
I have looked at two, both are "Model HSA B005DS".
Ons is HP USB-C™ Universal Dock,----- P/N 925698-001
and the other is HP USB-C™ Universal Dock NF ----- P/N L12769-001.
They are the same 'model', but different part numbers, and on has "NF" in its name
Thanks
