2-Bay 3.5-Inch HDD Docking Station, RAID up to 16TB Each

Two bays, one brushed-aluminum home

Two bays with cooling and protection

The internal fan and ventilated aluminum shell pull heat away from both drives while they work. Overcurrent, overheating and overvoltage protection sit inside the same dock, so a power fault is less likely to reach your files.

Up to 16 TB per bay

Each 3.5-inch bay takes drives up to 16 TB. Start with the drives you own today and swap in a larger one when a project outgrows it, without rebuilding your desk around a new box.

One cable, every system

USB 3.0 and eSATA cover most desktops and laptops, and the dock is listed for Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Keep a spare data transfer cable in the desk drawer for the next setup.

Connect it and back up in four steps

1. 1
   Seat the drives

   Slide a 3.5-inch SATA drive into HDD 1 or HDD 2 until it sits flush. Each bay has its own activity light.

2. 2
   Connect power and data

   Plug the AC cord into the adapter, run the DC cable to the dock, then link the USB 3.0 or eSATA cable to your computer.

3. 3
   Power on and check the lights

   Press the power button. The activity LED for each bay lights up when a drive is detected by your computer.

4. 4
   Set RAID before you format

   Back up existing data first. Choose the RAID mode on purpose before formatting, since the wrong mode can erase what is on the drives.

From loose drives to one safe dock

The drawer full of drives

Most people keep their best work on one or two loose drives, tucked in a drawer or stacked beside the monitor. They run warm under a laptop, and a single bad disk can take years of photos with it.

A home built for backups

A two-bay aluminum dock gives each drive a fixed place on the desk. Both bays show their own activity light, so you know which drive is busy before you unplug anything.

Backups that run themselves

Backups run from one cable. Copy the new card contents to a bay, eject, and the archive no longer depends on a single disk. Storage grows when you seat a second 3.5-inch drive.

What to expect after setup

1. First use
   Connected and recognized

   Plug in power and a data cable, then power on. Each bay's activity LED lights when a drive is seated and detected.

2. 3 uses
   Backup routine forming

   Running backups from the same cable becomes routine. Check that copy speeds and drive temperatures match what you expect for your setup.

3. 30 days
   Storage organized on your desk

   Your main archives live in one dock rather than loose drives. Add a second drive when needed, within the 16 TB per bay limit.
