    Bought this to transfer data from old drive to new laptop but each time I start to copy files over it just freezes then I get a 'not responding' and have to shut it down. Have not been able to find any solution or others having this same problem or drivers if it needs updated drivers. great product just not working out for me.

    Not compatable with Windows 11. It has destroyed by Data Drive and I lost everything on it. I called Insignia and they informed me it is not compatable. I explained that the best buy salewomen told me it was but there was nothing they could do. I called the Geek Squad and they said they would look at it for a fee. ?? This is brand new for use on my brand new computer that I bought from Best Buy at the same in in Dec 2022

    I hadn't taken into consideration the vertical position of the hard drives not good for spindles of hard drives. Vibration is awful, poorly thought-out design and engineering.

    It worked twice and died, thankfully the data I really needed to transfer was on the first drive. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

    I got this to be able to move old files from a previous hard drive and it just wouldn't do it. I hooked it up into my new computer via usb cable and it would never find any files. it would say the hard drive had 40% left but nothing found so i know the hard drive was not corrupt. then i tried an old ssd drive and it froze up my computer!! the dock itself is very cheaply made, i bet 1 drop and it would be shattered

    Had one of my SATA docks bite the dust so I went to my local BB and bought this shoddy piece of garbage I've used multiple docks over the years, I have an iMac with a small SSD, I have two 8TB drives to hold my data one is a primary drive the other a backup, I plugged in the new insignia used the same usb cable that went to my iMac DOA swapped out the usb cable DOA. The drives spun up but no icons appeared, never any more insignia cross my threshold ever ever
