## Description

desertcart.com: SABRENT USB 3.0 to SATA I/II/III Dual Bay External Hard Drive Docking Station for 2.5 or 3.5in HDD, SSD with Hard Drive Duplicator/Cloner Function [20+TB Support] (EC-HD2B) : Electronics

Review: Recommended. Pretty impressive little tool. - VERY Impressed..... This cloned my 1T Linux Mint fully encrypted HDD to a 2T fully encrypted Linux Mint SSD drive offline :D It showed visual status of cloning progress too. It's important that you don't disconnect in the middle of cloning because that will very likely cause a mess! No matter what OS you are cloning, I would recommend this SABRENT USB 3.0 to SATA I/II/III Dual Bay External Hard Drive Docking Station for 2.5" disks (I didn't try it on 3.5" but it looks like it would fit). For me, the functionality was spot on. It's plastic, so lightweight, but did it's job. It's a device that is meant to sit on a flat surface and not something that moves around so sturdiness was not a concern. The disks plugged in correctly, and connected well. Background: I wasted SO much time trying to do this clone with cloning software! By doing this offline with this little machine I didn't have to deal with all the conflicts & issues or dealing with cloning software that made a mess of everything. Windows OS wants to control everything, so it's better to take any Windows OS drive out, clone the Linux drive, install the newly cloned Linux drive and then add back the Windows OS if you want them to live in the same computer. Be patient - My Linux Mint OS install HDD was less than a month old so the disk was not at all full (I was testing out the OS on my older HDD first to see if I liked the version first). The entire cloning process took a little over 13 hours to clone the 1T HD to a larger 2T SSD, but like I said, everything was encrypted and the SSD was wiped a few times prior to this trying the annoying cloning software that didn't work. I have worked on UNIX/Linux operating systems all my career - however I would never have thought to switch to Linux OS on my laptop if it weren't for Microsoft ending support of Windows10. I can't stand Windows 11 with everything in my face and no privacy. I'm now looking forward to using this on other OS disks (Windows and Linux) and as a docking station. It's definitely worth the price :)
Review: Fantastic. Works great. Perfect for adding storage to Macs. - Works great! Compact, lightweight. Fits conveniently on a shelf of my desk and runs well. I got this when I switched from Windows to a Mac mini, and I wanted to keep using the internal SATA drives I had on my Windows. I did need to copy and reformat from NTFS to APFS, but this was very easy to do and pretty quick (I had 50,000+ files and they copied over in about 20 minutes). I used my computer for copying as I didn't have a completely blank drive to clone, but this device does allow cloning through the hardware (no computer required) if needed. I don't feel any heat coming from it at all. Perfect for adding storage to Macs, which notoriously come with practically no storage space.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i access two hard drives at once with this device or does it switch from one to the other?**
A: Yes, you'll be able to access both drives at the same time.
You can also use Offline Cloning from 1 drive to another.

**Q: Supports hard drives up to 10TB really?, I can't find any specification on the web site**
A: Our EC-HD2B will work well with 20TB drives. It has recently been tested and validated to work with native 4K sector drives including ones that are up to 20TB in capacity per bay

**Q: would this station allow one drive to handle time machine backups and the other drive separately handle playback of audio files?**
A: Yes. Both drives appear as two separate volumes accessible independently.

**Q: Can this be used to format a drive or is it just a cloning device?**
A: Think of this device as an external hard drive.  The difference is you get to plug in internal drives to it and work with them however you desire.  If you buy a new, unformatted, unpartitioned HDD (which is standard), you will go to DiskManagement in Windows and initialize the drive for use.  I like this device especially for backing up and cloning drives.  Acronis True Image 2021 is my current tool of choice for these options.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It does great when cloning a drive. The price including the drive is a steal!
*by S***T on January 19, 2026*

I bought this because, I got a good deal on a little older laptop that has a 1TB 5400 RPM hard drive. I needed to clone that old hard drive to a new 1TB SSD. The cloning feature worked flawlessly! I love the design it keeps other hard drives in order and ready for use. It has an included power supply and is very easy to use. Just connect it to your hard drive port and follow the directions and you will have a perfect clone, not just copy, but a clone with all the necessary files to make your machine fly like an eagle! It's quiet as a mouse. I did not use the 3.0 USB port while cloning, but it will come in handy when I want to connect to another hard drive.
