Works Suprisingly Well!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to recover a SATA3 drive from a dead computer. My experience with "hardware solutions" is they work about 25% of the time, and then only with an adapter. As a software engineer...yah software is worse! But this unit actually worked first time; it up-jumped-and-ran without anything more than a USB connection. I simply plugged the bare driver into the unit like a toaster and Windows 10 saw it an another USB drive. It had a Windows 7 backup on the old driver and Windows 10 has a somewhat handy tool to retrieve files from that format. I had to connect the drive directly to the new computer but the Windows 10 unit saw it and I was able to recover everything I needed. It was far easier than I expected and worked better than I imagined. For $40 (USD), it was a bargain. Thanks for making this unit.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Usb
Simple, effective, and economical
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit has two big things going for it: it does exactly what it says it does, and it's available at a good price. There's even a bonus USB 3.x (Type A) port for another device. The footprint is noticeably smaller than most docking stations, which can help on a crowded desk. (Don't ask how I know that.)
I would recommend this to a friend Toaster for your HDD drives
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is like a toaster for your hard drives. It connects multiple internal drives to an external port on your PC or device. Works great.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Overall performance
Worked great with my Win 10 drive
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older desktop that had the Win 10 upgrade. but the updates for the last 6 months have all failed. Sometimes I can easily recover from the failures and others I have to restore from and image. It recently failed again, and I was not able to restore from a checkpoint. I finally decided to just bite the bullet and scrap the machine. I had most everything backed up, but wanted to pull a few more recent files from the drive. This dock worked perfectly and after clicking the button to get access to the files, I was able to find everything. Since there is no cooling with this dock, you will probably want to use a small fan if you plan to have it up for any length of time.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Compatibility
Works good but no SMART data
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to be able to wipe a pile of hard drives with Linux PartedMagic on the Hiren's boot CD. It connects well, wiped the drives without a problem, allow reformatting and all partition functions without a problem. Where it fell is it doesn't allow SMART data from any drive. SMART data allows you to know if a drive is failing or not. My cheap StarTech cable does this. Why does this drive dock not?
