Key specifications

How to use

Connect the docking station to a host computer using the supplied USB 3.2 cable and power it on. Insert a 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drive into one of the bays until it seats securely. The operating system should detect the drive automatically and present it as an external storage device. For cloning, follow the manufacturer’s cloning procedure if the device supports standalone cloning, or use cloning or backup software on the connected computer to duplicate data between drives. Remove drives after safely ejecting them from the operating system or powering the docking station down if required.

Recommendations

Use a USB 3.2 connection for optimal transfer speeds and connect the docking station to a USB port that provides sufficient power or use the supplied external power adapter if applicable. Always perform safe eject procedures in the operating system before removing drives to avoid data corruption. For long‑term storage or frequent data transfers, consider using SSDs for higher durability and faster performance.
