This did the job for me.I had an old 2.5 harddrive that came out of an old MP3 PLAYER and I was able to retrieve music that I thought was lost forever. I would pay extra for the model with the card reader next time.

I purchased this as a simple solution than separate power cable and interface in an attempt to clean up my work area. This does SATA drives pretty well and for them it works as intended. For IDE drives, it's hit or miss. For full- size IDE, the power connector spacing from the IDE header will not work on all old drives. Than standard sizing between the ports may or may not exist in drives made in the 90's on back. Probably not a problem for most drives and most people, but worth a mention as I have a few. For the rest of the IDE drives, it works but takes a bit of work to get them lined up, defeating the "drop in" concept of the cradle. (the power connector is adjusted from the bottom of the unit, so you have to pick it up) For the small IDE drives, it's pretty difficult to line up. Also the black dividers make it difficult to see into the wells and the tolerances are a little too tight. Change the dividers from black plastic to clear ones and move them a tad, and move the IDE power plug adjustment to the front with a wider track and this would be perfect. For a clean SATA reader to put on your desk, the price is right.

I've had half a dozen HDDs sitting around from PCs I've scrapped. Not having a working IDE system and not wanting to shove old SATAs into my newer setup, this docking station was the perfect solution.Plugged it in, no software required to be installed. Attached the drive, turned it on and the drive shows up on my computer.Deleted and formatted everything after pulling off files i thought were long ago lost. Now i can use the largest drive for storage. This thing is great. Even trashed the old PC parts i had saved with the intention of building a system to put these drives into.Worth every penny.

The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star rating is the USB connection is a 2.0 and not a 3.0. When the speed is not a concern you should be happy.

I had several old computers including computers I was given to try and extract the data. Windows XP home, Windows 7. Windows 8. There are videos on YouTube how to get around the password access to these O.S., but when you have laptops that will not stay powered on, it became an issue. This is the ultimate device to work around many problems. The device accepts all 3.5 and 2.5 HDD's...removing the hard drives from the computers and inserting them in this device give you access to all files on the drive without the passwords. Best device since sliced break...worth it weight in gold! Thank you Tccmebius.

I used this dock to help me wipe 15 hard drives on old computers. The dock accepted every hard drive I had, even older drives, and had a USB cable that allowed me to connect to my current computer and run disk-wiping and formatting software to clean off any and all sensitive data on my old drives, allowing me to recycle them securely. I also retrieved old pictures and files. No extra software was required. It was all plug-and-play. The dock was easy to use and came with a movable positioning switch just in case I ran into a proprietary engineering issue with the connections. It served my needs elegantly.

Recently had an electrical surge that toasted my system but only have a Mini ITX as a Back Up. No available bays so I purchased this as a Temporary solution and it didn't disappoint! I also had a few IDE Drives to check and sure enough they were recognized in Linux Mint 19.2! The switch was easy to use and had no problems seating either SATA or IDE as the IDE Switch has but two positions that lock in place. Only CON I could think of it the Plug is a Block so have enough space for it on your UPS or Power Strip.

My unit died after about 2 hours of use. The transformer light is on so there is power going from the outlet to the unit but the unit lights no longer light up and the drive does not spin. Before it died, I connected 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives. They connected easily, spun up and I was able to read/write the drives on Windows 10 without a problem.I was not successful in getting my IDE drives to work. As others have mentioned, it is quite difficult to align the adjustable power connection on the bottom of the unit. After many tries, I was able to plug the drive in. I turned on the unit and the drive spun up but Windows 10 did not recognize it.I also had another IDE drive but was unable to connect it because the power slider on the unit has limited range and my drive has data and power connections that are very close together (see picture). I was going to try to connect it to the unit with cables but then the unit died. I returned this item and purchased a non-toaster type dock with separate data and power connections which should make connecting easier and more flexible.
