Review on ⚙️ StarTech.com Dual Bay USB 3.0/eSATA Hard Drive Duplicator Dock for 2.5" & 3.5" SATA SSD HDD - UASP (6Gbps) Standalone Docking Station by Tony Doan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

"Not exactly, just a mess.

Works great as a docking station for accessing your drives but not for copying. Tried two different combinations of hard drives. Both Windows 10 (maybe that's the problem). Both disks with a copy crash with a blue screen on first boot and then reboot to the desktop. However, they are both now not activated and have no windows keys.? I rekeyed and activated the keys and the bot discs kind of flop, fly to blue screen here and there, and you abruptly reboot the PC in the middle of IE. So no, I haven't seen an exact copy. What I'm seeing is a dirty, unreliable copy that may be suitable for copying an unbootable data drive. Not for me. 2 stars because I can access drives via USB as a docking station. Also very expensive compared to others. The selling point for me was "sector copy" for an exact copy. Not correct. Returned.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Minor issues
