Unitek USB 3.0 to SATA Dual Bay External Hard Drive Docking Station 🖥️ - 2.5/3.5-inch HDD SSD Support, Hard Drive Duplicator Cloner, UASP & 16TB Capacity - Black Review

Bought in 2019, worked fine for several months. This worked for a month at most. I thought my hard drive was broken. So if your hard drive gets corrupted with this device, it may not be your hard drive. I'm only now finding out it's the device and not the hard drive because I finally bought a new hard drive to replace the last one and immediately the new hard drive disappears and shows up in Disk Management in Windows 10. Now I need to get my hard drive back and I would never have found out…

This device is a great standalone solution for HDD/SSD cloning. You can clone from SSD to SSD, HDD to HDD, HDD to SSD or even SSD to HDD. He does every combination. I have successfully cloned a failing hard drive to an SSD with no problems. This device made an exact copy of the original. The computer didn't even know I had replaced the drive. Only now it's MUCH faster. Please note that the cloning process is a standalone process. Do not connect to a computer while cloning. I haven't used the…

UPDATE 180525: Unitek has responded to my distress and is sending a replacement unit under the terms of the warranty. Once it has arrived and I have had a chance to use it I will come back and correct my review…

My computer is 5 years old. Because of past experiences, he must die. The most likely failure of a computer is the hard drive, as it is the only one with moving parts and portable media. So I decided to intervene by cloning the hard drive. In the past, I've been doomed to A.) buy a new PC and reinstall all my software (not to mention restore files from a backup) or replace a failed drive and perform a restore, which left me with Option A left me with the same problems. After trying to clone an…

I've had one of these for about six months and now I've bought a second one for my wife's computer. I've never used the clone feature, so I can't comment on that. I use this as a cheap and easy way to connect hard drives to my Mac computer (I used it with a Windows 7 computer originally and it worked with that too). This does exactly what I want: it allows me to use less expensive internal hard drives than external drives with my iMac. It works with Time Machine (although I've never had to use…

As a docking station, this product is fine - so if you just need an external drive docking station function, I must say that this product has it worked well so far in the short time I've had it. I used it to connect some old drives and pull out a few things I wanted to keep and it worked fine for that purpose. However, the clone function does not work. [NOTE - see edit below; finally it worked] I tried it today for the first time. There is a big button that you have to hold down for a few…
