    Did you ever find one? I don't think there are docking stations for MSI products other than those designed to ship with one - like the GPU dock models from a couple of years ago (are those still shipping?).

    There aren't many people posting here about the WS63, but it looks great :)

    Balance Life and Work with Thin & Light MSI WS63 Workstation


    If you are looking for a small light semi-portable laptop stand, there are several around that fold up nicely, and should fit the WS63 size / form.

    This is what I use at home for small, medium, and very large laptops - they hang off both sides and top, but it's sturdy enough to hold a GT80, but small enough for a 13" laptop - or anything in between.

    The fan is very quiet, and would help small laptops struggling with heat - but not as much as one would like - that takes many loud fans to really make a difference.

    Putting the laptop on an angle helps convection cooling, putting the back up higher than the front, and that's why I picked this style of stand rather than a flat or shallow angled one.
