NOTE: **Precision 7520/7530/7540/7720/7730/7740 require more power than 130 W, so when docked with the Dell
Dock WD19 (130 W/180 W) or Dell Thunderbolt Dock WD19TB, the workstation power adapter needs to be plugged in for
optimal operation. For the best experience with Precision 7530/7540 or 7730/7740, choose the Dell Performance Dock
WD19DC which comes with a dual USB-C connector that provides up to 210 W power delivery, so you no longer need an
extra power adapter.
NOTE: Following are the platforms that are supported with Ubuntu 18.04:
•Latitude - 5300, 5400, 5401, 5500, 5501, 7300 and 7400
•Precision - 3530, 3540 and 3541
•XPS - 9380
