I plan to add the same one to my current monitor (https://www.amazon.de/Samsung-C32F391-Curved-Monitor-Zoll/dp/B01DTLSQA2/ for my laptop and then have practically 3 screens for work.
Unfortunately my laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad) has very few ports and I don't want to buy a docking station. Therefore, I considered whether it would not be possible to connect the two monitors to each other instead (e.g. Via HDMI) instead of the two monitors separately using a cable on the laptop, and finally to connect the laptop to one of the two monitors.
Does that work? Since the two have the same graphics cards, there shouldn't be any technical problems, right?
It's called Daisy Chain, HDMI has it as far as I don't know, DisplayPort offers it, but your laptop probably won't. An alternative would be e.g. To use a VGA to HDMI converter, your laptop should have VGA. But then it already costs a piece.
Daisy chain (i.e. A cable from the computer to the 1st monitor and then a cable from the 1st to the 2nd monitor) only works via DisplayPort (or Thunderbolt) and not via HDMI, DVI or VGA.
For DisplayPort Multi-Stream Transport (MST) (aka Daisy Chain) to work, the graphics card must support DisplayPort 1.2 and the connected monitors must also support DisplayPort 1.2 and have a DisplayPort output (the last monitor in the chain does not have to be able to do this).
Otherwise there's still the possibility to work with a splitter, but then the monitors would display the same content. I don't think that's what you want.
