Poor quality
September 28th 2011
Very poor build quality. All plastic, which isn't bad, but it's so light and I feel like it's going to break as soon as I touch it.
One of the front USBs was used once. After that I couldn't plug anything in as the USB got pushed way inside the device itself.

Worked fine with a 2TB WD Green hdd, no issues there.

Works great for SATA but sort of flaky for PATA drives. Majority of my needs are SATA so it's not a big deal to me. Maybe I am doing something incorrectly. This device is stable and fits coveniently on my computer rack. I like the I/O switch too.

It worked
August 12th 2011 Verified user
It worked, about three times then the mini USB port in the rear of the unit became detached from the PCB inside, I tool a peek and reset it, seemed like it was glued on, but it didn't work after that!
When it did work the IDE drive was difficult to slot in ok. Very flimsy construction.

It Works

Had a little trouble at the beginning before I spotted that the IDE drive slot power adaptor was on a slide and it was wrongly set-up for my drive but once that was sorted it has been plain sailing.
The build quality isn't the strongest (flimsy would be too strong a word) but for the average user it would be fine, good for ocasional use but not for PROs or SYS ADMINS needing to image disks daily.

Overall positive impression even given its failings.

Pros :
1. One touch button backup cloning of any HDD (IDE SATA) I threw in it. Quick and easy. All in 1 was recognised automatically in XP.
2. Handy USB Hub : I dont need to struggle to reach the back of my tower to plug my external HDs anymore.
3. e-sata interface.

Cons :
1. Inserting IDE HDD into its slot was no easy task. Plastic does feel a bit cheap and I was worried I was going to break the connector if I pushed too hard. Surely they must have miscalculated the space between the connector and power. It just wont take any of my IDE drives.

2. No manual. There is a cloning software that you can install if you get the sticker with the serial in your bundle. Mine came without it. I found one online so no worries but why was it missing in my bundle. And why did I find instructions for a Sat Nav instead.

Amazing device
January 15th 2011
Really good investment, ideal for testing and re-building hard drives for my customers' laptops and desktops. Simply slot the HDD in and it can be read via this docking station. Highly recommended!
