    Wow this insignia docker is cool. I had about 10 Sata old hard drives lying around. I reformatted them all checked for errors now I have extra hard drives to use. When your hard drive in your computer goes bad you can always take it out and put it in this dock and get back all your files. Nice product and its easy to use. You can use this to tranfer data from diiffrent devices. This is always good to have.

    This docking station was extremely easy to plug into the USB port, and then hot-swap any 2 drives (SSD or HDD). They show up immediately in Explorer and are accessible as if they had been installed inside your computer itself. It's great for file transfer from old systems or drives. Highly recommended.

    This product has saved my work life in a time of crisis. Was able to pop in hold hard drive and connect to new laptop and recovered files. The only thing I dislike is that it needs to be plugged into outlet so you have limited room/space. Other than that, this is a must have as a tech person.

    Used this to transfer data from my old laptop hard drive to my new SSD hard drive and this made it so easy to accomplish that transfer. I was so pleased with it that I bought a 2nd SSD and also upgraded my wifes laptop.

    This 2-Bay docking station by Isignia is a great way to put into use older drives that you might have laying around. It's also perfect for upgrading computers when moving files off your old PC to a new one. It works with standard drives and laptop drives. It has a power switch so you can leave it connected to your PC and flip on/off as you need it. I've had no issues with plug-and-play simplicity. I bought it open-box but it's pretty inexpsensive no matter what. Great purchase!

    I had some old hard drives from the early 2000's in storage and needed an easy way to hook them up as "external" drives to my iMac. This thing works like a charm. You can put 2 drives in at once, and they can be either 2.5 or 3.5'' disks. I found pictures from 20 years ago. All my old music. This is also a must-have for people that regularly do data recovery work.

    I was truly surprised after hooking up this HDD docking station. It was only this version and another smaller HDD enclosure available in the store. I took this one (the other was for 2.5 HDD's) I needed it for my 5TB HDD. I was skeptical because I just purchased something liek this from amazon and it was horrible. This Insignia version is PERFECT! Pros: No firmware to download (Plug & Play) Open so it stays cool Dual HDD slots 2.5 or 3.5 HDDs USB 3.0 Power Switch! Price (You can catch this item for 30% off regularly) Cons: The HDD slot doors do not cover the entire slot when no HDD is inserted. I just lay a index card over it when not in use to keep dust out. (Dust is a top electronic device killer!)

    Works exactly as advertised! Does exactly what I need! Accepts two 3.5" HDD, or two 2.5" HDD/SSD. Externally powered, so does not need to be powered from PC. It has an additional USB port that can be used to plug in an extra device directly to the dock, to pass thru to PC. This is great as you don't necessarily lose a port when connecting this. Essentially gives you two External Hard drives that can be hot swapped and used simultaneously. Great for cloning/swapping/transfer/backup, whatever you need! Fair price point in comparison to other products! LED indicator to show drive in use. Also has a power switch on back of dock so that it may be turned off when not in use, to save power consumption. I love the eject buttons on the side as they make removing the drives painless and simple.

    This was an amazing purchase. I had a dying hard drive that I lost data and allowed me to dock it into this. Pair it with disk genius and I was able to recover most if not all of the data. I would recommend this for any IT person who has a bench or a kit they take with them.

    My Business laptop died and I was able to get into the drive and salvage some extremely important files with this device. I believe I will be able to fix the boot files on the drive to actually fix the laptop. At least I'm hoping!

    I needed a quick way to connect a drive and a desktop together. I messed up installing the OS and the drive became slow. Attached it to my other computer so I could quickly force a format and try again. Lost an external drive due to a bad daughter board and this guy made it simple to reconnect it and recover the data. Both cases this guy performed and now I have this powerful tool for the next use case.

    Extremely handy in working with hard drives for a NAS system or anything like that without the need to open a case and install the drive. It also supports 2.5" drives but I mainly purchased for 3.5"
