I want to use a docking station to connect dual monitors with my HP LAPTOP 17-by2XXXX (7EF33AV).  Can you recommend any Universal Docking Stations that would work with my laptop>

What is EXACTLY your machine. 7EF33AV does not ring any bell

It probably has SAME ports as the following machine

 

            HP Laptop 17-by2053cl

 

If you wish to have 2 or more external monitors (and notebook monitor - total 3), please enter your requirement on the following link and it will find for you few USB-A DisplayLink Certified options on market today including some HP products (you can select HP before Search)

I have an HP Laptop 17-by2053cl.  My technical knowledge about USB ports and video connections is limited.

 

Can you provide a brief explanation of how the differences between USB-A and USB-C will affect my selection of a Docking station for use with dual monitors.  Thank you
