Inspiron 15 3511 - possible to connect two external monitors with no usb c?
I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3511. I currently connect one external monitor using the HDMI port with no issues. I would like to connect a second monitor that displays different content (so not mirroring the first monitor). I originally thought to get a docking station that has two display ports and connect with some adaptors but I found that most docking stations only support usb c. Is having two monitors possible with different displays, or even affordable?
My laptop has 3 traditional usb ports, 1 HDMI port, an SD card port, and a round top power port.
I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff so any advice is helpful!

The only way is a displaylink to USB-A adapter.
No docking station will do the job.

Yes, it's possible to connect two external monitors to your Dell Inspiron 15 3511 without using USB-C. You can use an HDMI splitter or a USB to HDMI adapter for the second monitor.
