Anyone tried Thunderbolt 5 docking stations with AMD 7040-series or later on Windows?

It seems, my current docking solution is slowly going out of commission and I’m thinking that the slew of new Thunderbolt 5 docks released this year would be a nice future-proof solution to go to.

But I wonder if the dock will work on Windows with my AMD 7040-series based laptop.

I am curious if anyone had a success with using a Thunderbolt 5 dock with USB4 ports on their AMD 7040 or later laptop.

My particular setup would actually be a 7040-based Laptop 16 with Lenovo TB5 dock, but I feel I’d get more eyes (and thus better probability of reaction) in a Laptop 13 category - shame I can’t cross-post in both. And if you had or had not any success on Windows with any other docks like the Razer one, or the Dell one, or Kensington, or OWC, or CalDigit, I’d also be thrilled to hear from you.

This is the one I have had my eyes on but still can’t justify the cost. I have a FW16 Ryzen9 7940HS

Head over to USB-C/Thunderbolt Dock Megathread - I see the Anker Prime 14-in-1 needs to be added to the wiki at the top!

Thank you, yeah missed it at first but then saw it and ordered the dock. Ended up working fully and nicely for me:
