I am currently using this dock to copy files and format drives. I've only tried this with SATA drives so far, so I don't know how it would work with IDE drives. Using the USB 2 port is quite slow compared to the hard drive installed on the computer. I went to the site and downloaded the file according to the instructions on the box but I couldn't unzip the file and tried 3 different programs. This may affect some of the features of the device as I have not tried them all and just received them today. The instructions with the docking station were for the version that came with the CD, so do not close the downloaded file. The written instructions are a bit tricky to use as the instructions were for a program that I couldn't unzip. I expect the dock to do what I need it to do, which is to move files between the computer and the external drive.
