SABRENT Hard Drive Docking Station, SSD HDD 2.5 3.5 Inch SATA to USB Adapter, External SSD Enclosure Hard Drive Reader, Fast Data Transfer Hard Drive Enclosure, Tool-Free (EC-DFLT)

Excellent. It did the job I wanted after downloading on another PC 6 months worth of work from hard drive.

It works fine with Windows 11 and also on USB2. This info should be included in the description as there is only talk of USB3 which is faster than 2 but it is fast enough for me on USB2. My only concern is that getting to grips with a 2.5inch drive, so as to remove it from the caddy, is a little difficult as I have large hands, but I managed. Managed to sort through a collection of SSD and HDD drives all SATA without any problem. Would recommend.

Easy setup, easy use

Great product. My external hard disk was dead. I desperated to recover the working files. I took away the 3.5" harddisk from the dead one. This docking station save all my files, also save me from the data recovery company. Definitely recommended.

Lightweight but sturdy plastic case. Transparant hinged lid to access the drive for installation and removal. USB comms and mains power. Works perfectly. Swap and change drives easily.

Does the job as promised. Very easy to connect and plug and play.

First time I used this gizmo, it seemed to work fine - I could read & write to my HDDs without any trouble - first a single HDD - then 2 together - no apparent problems - second time however .... different story - on loading up the HDDs (same ones as I used before), I was greeted by a message stating that "this disk needs to be initialised before you can use it" - same message for both disks - tried them on a different device - one which has worked fine for many years but has a slower USB connection - no change - both HDDs now completely unreadable - all data on both .... lost forever - if you wish to lose all your data, then this is definitely the device for you - although, to be honest, you could simply reformat your HDDs - same result - but far less expense - never going to touch anything from this company ever again

very easy to set up with only two cables and for the price is very very worth it as it has good read and write speeds and rarely doesn't connect but I think that's down to the drive and not the reader itself and also is the perfect size to fit on-top of my PC tower and it looks like its part of the PC but that's likely just a coincidence.
