SPECIFICATIONS

The Dual-Bay Hard Drive Docking Station with SSD Duplicator is a versatile storage device designed for cloning drives, transferring data, backing up files, and accessing bare SATA drives without installing them inside a computer. Many models also include an M.2 SATA SSD slot, allowing compatibility with both traditional 2.5-inch/3.5-inch SATA drives and supported M.2 SATA SSDs.

One of its standout features is offline cloning, which allows you to copy one drive directly to another without connecting the dock to a computer.

Supports two SATA drives simultaneously:

• 2.5-inch SATA SSDs
• 2.5-inch SATA HDDs
• 3.5-inch desktop SATA hard drives

The dock makes it easy to:

• Read drives
• Transfer files
• Recover data
• Upgrade storage
• Test drives

M.2 SATA SSD Support
