    I removed a hard drive from my old desktop and was able to use this docking station to retrieve the data. Geek Squad wanted to charge me $100 bucks to do the same thing. I retrieved the data PLUS I can still use the 1T hard drive as a backup. LOVE IT!!

    Extremely helpful for reading stored hard drives that I don't need constantly and just need to check and then take right back out. Can even leave it plugged in. The two at a time is a nice feature as well. Good product for the price.

    Works as expected, my only issue is the seating isn't perfect. A 2.5" drive feels a little unstable in it, but the 3.5" is just fine. Over all a worthwhile purchase to try and pull stuff off of old drives or expand your PCs size for a little cheaper.

    Did everything I needed it to do. No weird disconnections or anything while transferring. USB cable could have been a little longer but thats just my setup.

    run out of space for hard drives in your tower or need some extra storage for your laptop. The USB3 interface works just about as fast as sata 3 anyway. great for adding big storage drives for media

    This is a real life-saver if you have a desktop HD that you need to access (doesn't work for laptop hard drives without an adapter). I have only had to use it once or twice, and I am glad I have it. This can save you the cost of a service repair!

    This product was perfect for what I needed. This docking station not only has 1 but 2 slots for hard drives. I was able to view what was on an old hard drive and retrieve old pictures I forgot I had. I will purchase another hard drive in the future to store my important files on.

    If your PC won't start and don't have an existing hard drive backup, this device will help you retrieve date on your 2.5 & 3.5 HDDs.

    Love this dock! It's super easy to swap 3.5" and 2.5" drives in and out of this. It's decent on the xfer speeds and so far has been very stable and reliable. If something ever happens to this one I would definitely purchase another one!

    This device is great for reading and retrieving data off your hard drive! My computer died and I needed to get all my files and pictures off the hard drive. (should have backed it all up ahead of time). This device allowed me to get the data and pictures without any hassle.

    This device does what it's supposed to. The housing is a little cheap compared to the old Thermaltake ones that Best Buy used to carry. Additionally, the price is a little high for what it is, but when you need one same-day, it's what was available.

    Does just what it's made for. USB 3 file transfers are fast (USB 2 connection is obviously slower, but still works fine). Have not had any issues so far. Drives run cool in it. Drives do stay powered up and spinning all the time while unit is turned on. Overall great product.

    Very Convenient option to use with hard drives from old laptops and desktops. If you ever need a good way to re-use those or to save data from them, this is a great alternative.

    Have a stack of old drives and this allows hot swapping so now have back ups that are a bit more secure than a flash drive. Just plugged it in, added a drive and had complete access. Now have a use for the drives out of some dead lap tops too.

    This unit worked much more reliably, easier than a slightly cheaper unit I had bought that was pretty much a bunch of cables that connected to each other and to a power supply. The only downside would be that it only handles sata drives, not older ide type drives.
