Easily accommodates a full size 3.5 inch drive eSata connection is faster than expected Allows addition of big HDDs to Laptop dock Stays cool without fan noise (there is no fan) Reasonable size footprint

- Needed 36TB storage pool created from 2x18TB spanned disk array - Easy to setup and format as "one large partition" with MiniTool Partition Wizard

- Easy to install the SSD - Nice looking - USB to USB-C and USB-C to USB-C cables provided - Fast

-easy installation -sturdy enclosure means it will stay put -option to upgrade optical drive later

Small footprint fit under computer table on top of my desktop.

I just barely bought it and plugged in my 4 software raided hard drives and my OS (Ubuntu) mounted them immediately and I had full access to everything I had set up before. The unit feels pretty sturdy and the cooling seems effective. If something happens down the road I'll update this review. This has HDMI built in. I imagine it would work if I had used the built in hardware/software raid (whatever it is) for playing media directly to a screen. I don't plan on using that feature so I can't review it.

1. Small footprint; 2. Easy to use - typical plug and play; 3. USB C to USB A adapter - crucial for desktops with USB C port at the back (like mine) or laptops without USB C port(s): 4. USB 3.0 - relatively fast data transfer; 5. Nicely shaped, neutral colour, unobtrusive - very elegant design; 6. REASONABLY PRICED - a rarity these crazy days!

I ordered 2 of these drive cases to put to use a couple of WD 1Tb drives I had leftover from an upgrade. One of the two boxes worked fine, the other was DOA. I RMAed it and New Egg sent me one that works. Failures can happen to the best of them but the company (Vantek) should have better quality control. That dead box should never have gotten out the door. Other than getting a dead drive box, both seem to work as advertised.

Works as expected.

I use the docking station to move from a PC with 6 drives to a iMac 5k. To my surprise all the PC drives 3T and 4T were instantly available on the mac as well as all the files and photos! I can have both mac and pc drives in the doing station at the same time. I can pop in the drives I need when I need them. What a difference in transferring from a mac to PC which I did 3 months ago. That was an experience that no one should have to undergo!

Looks great, lights up , love it !

Easier to use than my "toaster" docking station. I have 2 and I can stack them and store them separately. Works with W7 and W10


Works good so far. Love the rubber case incase it drops. Like the concept of the screw less design.





Easy to clone NVMe drives that would otherwise be a huge pain. No setup, built in functionality, just works. can handle a larger Target NVMe, which was my use case, upgrading an existing OS drive in a Laptop.
