– Hard Drive Docking Station, 4 Bay SATA Enclosure, 2.5" SSD Dock | Turbo cooling fan runs strong to keep your drives alive, built for performance, not silence - DS-4SSD

This is excellent and so easy to set up. I am using it on my MacBook Pro and turn the unit on as and when i need the 4 drives.

Use this to copy my OS to another M.2 storage from my pc to the new M.2 storage, works as it should. The quality seems a little cheap though, with a cheap plastic look and feel,which for the price seems a little bit much.

Once I put a UK plug adapter on the power wire all ran well. Nice and compact, nice design. Shame there’s no UL adapter in box but no biggie, those are dirt cheap off eBay :)Update 1 month in: After very occasional use since purchase the units fan is now making a very loud whirring noise to the point I've had to use it without the fan (which is a big reason I bought it in the first place).Update: the whirring noise lasted a few day but since then no odd noise at all. This is a highly convenient way of dealing with raw 2.5” drives and also transporting them if need be.If you rescue some drive from old laptops you’ll have yourself a very And fast cheap backup solution or storage.Reminds me of switching isolinear chips on the Enterprise, but I’m geeky like that.

I thought this could make a fun low-speed, low power NAS hanging either from a Lenovo Tiny PC or a RasPi. Hopes were not at all high with this - it was just a bit of fun after all, and yet Sabrent have once again managed to fall well short of my already-low expectations.For starters, the device is pulling the same stunts as their little stand-alone one-drive USB-to-SATA adaptors and rewriting the device IDs to a generic Sabrent one (see second photo).That could be worked around, but under either Windows or Debian, drive slot 4 just would not behave. Windows would report drives of wildly different sizes and then just bin the disk in slot 4 after a random amount of time, and Linux had trouble partitioning the drive in bay 4. Eventually worked, but kept being kicked from either MD- or ZFS-based arrays. Formatting as a single EXT4 disk also didn't work for any period of time. (Using the same drives hanging from four USB-SATA adaptors from another manufacturer works just fine, however!)Shuffling the disks like a pack of cards resulted in fault-staying-with-slot - ANY drive in slot 4 just misbehaved right from the get-go. Tried WD Reds, Hitachi H2T10003272S, WD blue and some Samsung 860 Evo SSDs - none worked correctly.The final nail in the coffin is the fan. It makes a prestigious amount of noise whilst moving almost no air. You can turn it off, but then your drives are in an essentially unventilated, double-skinned plastic case and cook themselves.This is an utterly terrible product. Even if all the slots worked and it didn't mash drive IDs, it's expensive for something that will noisily cook your drives, but it doesn't even manage to do that. I think most of the cost goes into the rediculously overkill packaging. Utter rubbish. Avoid.

I purchased the single dock/drive version of this modes which is the DC-UC1B. The unit comes with a powr cable and two USB cables so the unit can be connected to a computer using a USB C or A port. Once powered up and connected I dropped in an old HDD and te unit recognised it and I was able to browse the files without any issues.Overall the dock feels much lighter than I expected but this is not a problem in operation although I can imagine that the multi dock versions might feel a little top heavy.All in all this meets my needs and I amhappy to recommend.

Nice and well made product. Only the fan when switched on is very loud but that's not a big issue

It’s so easy to use.I literally installed 1 drive. It showed up.I installed second drive it showed up as a different drive. 3 and 4 the same. Works with the Mac and tested it on friend’s windows machine.IT DID’NT LET US DOWN.Transferred easily with Apple Music and Apple TV.Installed new movies overnight.(68 movies and internet speed dependent)So shows all 4 drives individually across the network( set up but by the connection to the Mac)Accessed easily across the network, no glitches so far.I like it because it’s 1 unit, 1 connection, no trailing wires. No confusion, the fan can be switched on/ off manually.The only issue with this unit is it will hot swap it’s self with no problems . But Mac ‘s don’t like this. And throws a fit. It’s best to eject the drive on the MacThen swap it. Mac will detect the new drive.Windows machine didn’t have this problem.But to be honest I’ve had this problem with Mac’s and other drives. If your a Mac user you’ll already know this. I’d recommend this unit and it’s brilliant for media content.

Does what I wanted,SSD’s are not recognised as such, they appear as Hard Drives, so trim does not work, otherwise they do write and read data fine.

I am using 2 of these since about 2 to 3 month and they just work fine.

Enkel att läsa satadiskar 2,5" samt 3,5" bara att trycka i samt läser nvme minnen. Köpte på rea (halva priset)och då var priset det rätta.

Funciona perfectamente. Los acabados no están muy acorde respecto al precio, por lo que cuesta podría tener unos acabados un poco mas premium, se siente muy plasticoso y muy ligero aunque cumple su función.La velocidad de transferencia es correcta, copiando archivos pesados desde el PC a uno de los discos alcanza sobre los 650mbs, copiando archivos pesados a 2 discos a la vez la velocidad se divide entre los 2.

Per mio ardsik esterno ottimo per mio compiuter

Great product, no issues whatsoever, will definitely buy this brand again!
