This product performed exceptionally well. It couldn't be any easier to install, just plug and play. I got all my files back from a sata hard drive from a computer that went bust. It took me a while to discover the drive E, but after that I was sailing. Well worth $20 investment, go and buy this

Needed this to access a sata drive easily from both my pc and laptop. This makes it easy to plug/unplug the drive via a usb cable.

First one was defective, but second replacement works fine.

I reconfigured, gutted, and/or tossed a bunch of my old computers some time ago. Leaving me with all of these internal hard drives big enough to be of value to use, but with no new machine to put them in. I figured a docking station (I now own 2 of these) was the way to go.I've had a couple others like this one, plus those wires you use to USB and power an external hard drive to your computer. The problem? They spin the drive 24/7 or whenever you have them turned on. Making them less ideal for a drive you may use many times per day (IE, you want it on), but putting that excess wear time on the hard drive for no reason.I searched and searched and this was the ONLY docking station that I could find which turned the drive off after 10 minutes of inactivity! Love it. I use two external drives as regular hard drives on my computer (which only came with 512GB hard drive, like many machines today).IMPORTANT NOTE: It is my experience that my boot time is a whole lot longer if these are running when I turn on my computer. Hence, I have them turned on (on the docking station), but both plugged into a power strip. I turn on the computer, THEN turn on the power strip (and hence the drives). I shut down the computer, and then once it is completely off, I turn off the power strip. No big deal.

After going through electronics of mine, I came across two hard drives from old computers I wanted to extract the data from. Both were SATA hard drives, so I ordered this, as it came at an affordable price, as I didn't want to make a crazy investment for something I would have a very limited use case.After unpacking it and setting it up like drive docking stations I've used before (I work in IT, both hardware and software), I attempted both hard drives in all USB ports on two separate computers (Windows 10 and Windows 11).One hard drive had whining and the LED light did not come on at all for that drive, and I don't think it's a fault of the drive docking station. This hard drive might not be functional.However, the second drive made the noises I would expect from a working SATA HDD, the LED light on the front of the dock blinked blue before moving to a solid blue, and I believed that my computer should have been able to read it. Nothing came up in file explorer or disk management, and the LED light that should have been an indicator of status had no documentation for what it was attempting to indicate. All other devices (including other external hard drives) work in the USB ports attempted. Therefore, I'm left to assume that despite getting the power it needs, it's not transmitting anything to the computer.

I like these kinds of docs, but one problem with "others" has been the on/off switches, tthat can be flaky or wear out.This unit from SSK has a very simple on/off, left/right that seems more reliable. I've used this dock with several drives, including one12 TB and an SSD, and it all worked great.This is a good unit and good deal.
