Review on WAVLINK USB 2 by Draven Invert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fast USB3 transfer from external drive to internal, but bulky vertical ribs get in the way.

I really wish these vertical slats were foldable so I could put them in my laptop bag. The docking slots are great and both work, but the vertical fins don't fold in and out. I haven't used any cloning features or the SD card reader slots. I need a dual SATA dock so that I can copy data from both drives to the GigE NAS device (and from the NAS to the drives). The annoying thing is that when it's not plugged into a powered-on computer, not all ports get power. You cannot use the 2 front ports to charge phones, tablets, headsets, etc. unless they are connected to a computer and turned on. The top 2 ports with a power icon are the only 2 that will work without a computer connected. Because of this I had to buy another USB3 hub (Revain Basics USB3 hub, 7 ports) that connects to this one for kbd, mouse, scroll wheel, external USB audio device, second USB2 SATA drive dock and for charging some devices .

Pros
  • Positives only
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
