Pros

Not bulky. Very easy to use. But some of the reviews of the wav***k brand scares me especially if people say it shorts their hard drives or poor customer support.

Quality


This product works fast and is precise and errorfree


11 purchased by the reviewer but i don’t think many customers realize this and assume all reviews are of the same product


I wish it also had a standalone erase function with the various methods such as simple wipe multipass dod etc


With a speed of 375 mbs an it professional would probably consider the startech sdock2u33re an entry level device

Price


Just what i was looking for the price is high for a reason

Packaging/appearance


Whats worse is that for amazons listing in the from the manufacturer section the details refer to the usb3

Competitiveness


After using a number of significantly less expensive docks we settled on startech


I cloned a bootable 160gb ide hard drive using the optional startech sat2ideadp to a 500gb sata hard drive


Using another startech product to get information off the old ide hard drives
