    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 dual bay hard drive docking station using usb3 ports functions perfectly to image drives is a fraction of time with an older usb2 docking station. When turning on the docking station I had to wait a minute for the unit to be fully ready,-maybe the older computer. A pleasure to use.

    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.

    Ideal for transferring data from old harddrives to new computers. Eliminates the need for having the old computer work property since you can simply insert the old drive into the device and access the information like a flash drive.

    I am not at all an expert in this area so the reader has to bear this in mind. I needed something reasonable in price and that would enable me to set up a RAID type of system with at least two hard drives. To my surprise, because this item is pretty inexpensive, this thing has worked out great.

    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!

    It worked as expected for me. Easy to use and no problems. I was trying to decide between it and a single enclosure. I decided on it because it could handle two types of HDD (laptop and desktop) and I'd likely need again in future.

    I used this to desperately recover lost data on a NAS I built for one of my family members when the server needed to be updated and my goofy self forgot to disconnect the drive to prevent it from being formatted into the void this pared with some good software will save your butt if you are like me and sometime forget to put your coffee in the mug
