Hi folks.
Just wondering if anybody has any experience with the new M1 Mini with multiple displays. I have 4 on a 2008 Mac Pro and this machine is simply outdated. I'm researching how I can get these 4 monitors working on a new Mini.
Given the port setup and capabilities, using Thunderbolt and a direct connection to the ports, it can be achieved with a dock. At least that's what I've seen (6 displays in fact). Here is the dock:
First Dock
But I'm wondering if I could use two of these instead:
Second Dock

This isn't supposed to be a gaming machine and 30 Hz is just fine for refresh rates. It seems OWC is now responding to the new units on the market, as real estate is king for some of us, and the restrictions on the new M1 units has us searching for options.
Any insight appreciated. Cheers
