Connecting 2021 MacBook Pro to two displays

Does anyone have experience setting up two displays for a 2021 MacBook Pro (14 inch)? Is there a recommended hardware configuration? I could see running an HDMI to HDMI connector for one, and then a thunderbolt for the other, or two thunderbolts, or get a docking station. Thoughts?

Connecting two external displays to a MacBook Pro with M1 Pro I've been reading about connecting two external displays to a Apple M1 Pro and seeing responses where it's only possible to hook up one. The "two" being the monitor on the laptop itself plus one. I ordered a 16" Macbook pro with the M1Pro chip v, I also purchased a new OWC Thunderbolt Dock and 2 - 27" Thunderbolt Displays. The Add on Apple's Website says (will support 2 External displays) as follows... Apple M1 Pro Incredible performance for pro applications Up to 2.5x faster graphics performance⁹ Over 200GB/s memory bandwidth Supports two external displays I've gotten everything set up and am just waiting for my new MacBook pro to arrive.

You will have to provide the model/year/and chip information.

A M1 Mac does not support more than one external display.
