Axagon ADSA-DC SuperSpeed USB DUAL dock per HDD/SSD 2,5"/3,5" DUAL

SuperSpeed USB-C 5Gbps docking / cloning station AXAGON ADSA-DC DUAL CLONE easily and quickly connects up to two 2.5" or 3.5" drives to the computer at the same time. The connection to the computer is enabled by the modern double-sided USB-C connector on the dock together with the supplied USB-C <-> USB-A cable with a length of 80 cm.

This handy helper will allow you easiest connection of any 2.5”/3.5" SATA drive to computer or notebook. Just insert one or even two disks into the base at the same time, no tools or accessories are needed. Changing disks is very quick and easy.

You can use the docking station to easy cloning the contents of connected disks without the need to connect to a PC. Insert the source disk into the first slot of the station HDD A (source) and insert the target disk into the second slot HDD B (target). Then you just press the clone button and watch the cloning process on a scale of four LEDs. After all the data has been copied, there is an exact copy of the original disk on the destination disk. The dock can thus be used as an autonomous device for convenient duplication and disk image creation. This is the easiest way to transfer the contents of old HDD to new SSD, including a working operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux...).

SATA 6G interface with UASP support allows you to enjoy the speed of modern SSD disks. The TRIM feature support limits the gradual degradation of SSD performance over time. Reading of S.M.A.R.T. information monitoring the SSD/HDD condition. Supports sleeping of the connected disks and station.

The station case is sufficiently robust and durable, which allows perfect stability even with inserted disks. Rubber anti-slip pads prevent sliding on the table and vibrations of the hard drives. The outer casing is made of aluminum with an elegant brushed surface.

How to use

Place the dock on a stable surface and connect the external power adapter. Connect the station to a computer using the supplied USB-C USB-A cable or a USB-C cable into the dock's USB-C female port. Insert the source drive into slot HDD A and the target drive into slot HDD B for cloning, or insert one drive for direct access from the computer. For cloning, ensure the target drive has equal or larger capacity than the source, then press the clone button and monitor progress via the four LEDs. Use the device hot-plug support to connect or remove drives while the host is running. The station supports booting from a drive inserted in the dock when the host allows it.

Recommendations

For reliable cloning and SSD longevity, connect the power adapter, confirm target drive capacity is sufficient, and allow the cloning process to finish without interruption. Use the dock on a flat surface and keep ventilation unobstructed. Regularly check S.M.A.R.T. data when maintaining drives.
