💾 ORICO USB 3.0 to SATA Hard Drive Docking Station Tool-Free, Supports 8TB for 2.5 or 3.5 Inch HDD SSD, 3.3Ft USB Cable - Black Review

This product seemed great for the first 30 days or so, but somehow when I attached two hard drives to the 4TB plugged in the drive, it killed both of them. The data wasn't critical, but it contained my Plex TV and movie library that I'd accumulated over the years. One disk was completely damaged and the other could not be mounted. After unsuccessfully trying to use all the recovery tools I've used in the past (Disk Management, various Windows/MS-DOS programs, SpinRite, Linux Gparted, SeaGate…

Firstly, I do not recommend leaving this thing plugged in for too long, it will cause your computer to blue screen. Second, the sleep mode feature is frankly a bug. , because it would shut down randomly at any moment. There's really no timer on it, I'm not kidding. Third, every time I decide to plug a completely different USB drive into a separate USB port on my computer, the drives connect and kill all processes involved. with drives in the drive bay. 2.5/5 Overall it's reasonably decent, only

It has been a little over 3 years since I bought this 2 bay hard drive station. Used only once a week for backups. Tried to use the clone function once right after purchase.

I was quite skeptical when I read the features and thought it wouldn't work without a PC connection. To my pleasant surprise, it was like a magic pill for my biggest problem at home. We have a dash cam with a 500GB hard drive that was about 94% full. Every day the family removed some programs to add new ones and it got pretty boring. So I ordered a 4TB Revain hard drive and this unit. I put a DVR drive in the source and a new 4TB drive in the target and all I had to do was switch to cloning (no

Power outage. Excuse me. I was really hoping this would work. but well, it just shouldn't be. I asked for a refund and Revane was so good at providing me with a return label. Return to the drawing board. .UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE. After verification, the company contacted me, arranged a full refund and shipping, and sent me a sticker to return the device. They emailed me almost every day asking what the problem was and helping me figure out if the unit was defective or if I was doing something…
