Recommended Displaylink Adapter?

In my opinion, there is seldom anything that is "Plug and Play" with linux.
Most things that have a drivers will work just fine, but there is always things happening to kernel and what not, that might prevent hardware to work as intended.

I myself, have bought two HP 3005pr USB 3.0 Port Replicators. One for my office, and one back home.

I opted for this device since I have seen that others use it, and also it have the following ports:
1 x DisplayPort
1 x HDMI
1 x LAN
4 x USB 2.0
2 x USB 3.0
1 x external power input.

Can be connected via USB Type A or C (I'm using C).
