TCC-S865

I've been using this dock for several days now and am very happy with it. The clear shell looks great, and the internal LED lights are not just functional but look cool as well. I've used it to recover about 10 hard drives so far, and it's still going strong. SATA drives appear to be hot-swappable. Haven't tried hot-swapping an IDE drive. Copying files seems pretty quick. Can't verify USB3 speeds as all the drives so far have been older spinners. Drives are recognized very quickly, even on older computers (10 years and older). One thing I love about this dock is that drives only show up in your computer if something is actually plugged in. My old dock would reserve a drive letter for all media slots evenif nothing was plugged into them, which was quite annoying. Multiple partitions on one physical drive show up as multiple drives as one would expect. Have not tried booting from any docked media yet. I have not tried copying between devices connected to the unit (for example from a docked hard drive to an inserted USB flash drive). In fact, I haven't tried using the USB ports as storage at all. However, the USB ports do work great with a keyboard and mouse connected to them. Have not tried the other media ports yet either. Very pleased with this purchase so far. I hope it continues to work for a long time.

WORKS VERY WELL. NO PROBLEMS.

so far, so good, but be carefull with smaller drives, and pin allighnment, its good to be able to use a flash light through the clear enclosure. Read my half dead drives fine on Gparted. Good tool to have reviving old laptops. No complaints here.

Pretty decent drive reader here. I like the universal aspect in that it supports SATA and IDE. The card readers and USB hub on the front are a bonus. Drive read speeds are pretty optimal with usb 3 interface to the computer. One thing that could better is that the plastic molding itself is a little too snug to the interface connections for SATA and IDE. I had some server drives with some side molding on them as they were rack mounted and they do not fit in the reader slot unless i remove those side rails.

The lever on the bottom of the case, used to move the 4-pin IDE connector back and forth, is quite difficult to move. I was able to do so, only after putting the case up on top of a cabinet and prying it from the inside. I was able to read about half of the IDE drives I put into it. This is better than some adapter units that I have purchased. On the other drives, regardless of how hard I tried to seat them, I could only see the USB drive on the unit, and not the hard drive itself.

works good only problem is it wasnt the fix to my problem as the driver i got it for tells me it is encrypted and so still cant get the stuff off that drive

Needed to get some pictures off an older computer harddrive, this worked quite well in doing so.

First I'd like to say, "I wish that I had read more of the purchase reviews". I had bought a new PC and I did not want to lose my personal files which I had kept on an internal "slave DH" on my last PC. This drive was a standard IDE configuration. Nothing exceptional about it. This device does not work (as advertised). When I do power-up the "Docking Station" the power light is active & you can hear the HD spooling up to speed. . Then my PC will ping indicating that a device has been plugged into the USB (3) port., However that is as far as it goes. I've tried all that I know to get this (docking station) to work, to no avail. here is my system info: PC: Dell Inspiron 3668 RAM: 16.0 GB OS: Windows-10 Pro / Version: 1803 / OS build 17134.112 Sys. Type: 64-bit OS / x64 based processor I'm glad that I bought into Amazon prime....this (POS) is going to be returned today ! Please read all of the Amazon reviews prior to clicking that purchase button.
