Saved me a fortune.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little accessory saved quite a lot of money. My last computer fried but the hard drive was salvageable. Simply removed the hard drive from the dead computer, pushed it into the slot in the device, plugged the transfer cable into the new PC and plugged in the power. After a long time reading the old drive (1.5T) all the data was easily recognized without having to have a program to back up the data previously for transfer. This will not transfer any programs though only your data files in case anyone thinks or wants it to. Do not power off the device without closing all opened windows in the now externally used hard drive as it could cause corruption also be careful the drive can be removed while being it is being read. Make sure you place it in a steady location as the drive can wobble a little.

Great tool for my work
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have a few hard drives laying around, this thing comes in handy. You can also experiment with RAIDs or boot OS's externally. Ie. you use Rufus to install a live OS to a drive, tap your boot menu and select the exteral. USB3.1 gives you 450->500MB a second. I use it to prep my solid state drives. It works with Windows, Linux, and Mac. I got mine on sale but no I.T. professional should be without one. Also great if you just want to buy drives for backups. There are numerous things you can do with this.

I would recommend this to a friend My data rescue solution (No thanks to Seagate)
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I couldn't pass this up. I was thinking about buying an enclosure for a 4TB harddrive I stripped out of a Seagate NAS device that stopped communicating. I knew the hdd was still good, but could not connect to it by way of the network. The only problem was that the drive was formatted for Linux, so I had to find Windows software to read a Linux partition. Once that was done I transferred the files to another drive and then wiped the 4TB drive and reformatted it as a Windows drive. Now I use it as backup. I like that there are two ports on this docking station allowing transfer of files from one drive to another making upgrading drives easy.
