The Seagate FireCuda Gaming Dock is like a supercharged external hard drive combined with a USB hub, bringing with it 4TB of storage as well as a bunch of extra connection ports.

Plugging your laptop into the gaming dock instantly gives you a high-speed Ethernet port and extra USB connections, as well as Thunderbolt 3 and DisplayPort 1.4 sockets if you need to connect an additional display. You will need a Thunderbolt 3-equipped laptop or desktop to use with the FireCuda Gaming Dock, though it uses the familiar USB-C connector type.
