- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 January 2025Colour Name: Dual Bay- BlackVerified PurchaseI recently purchased the Alxum USB C & USB A Hard Drive Docking Station, and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. Here's why:
Build Quality
The docking station feels sturdy and well-made. The design is sleek, compact, and fits neatly on my desk. It’s a solid unit that inspires confidence, especially when handling multiple drives.
Ease of Use (I use it with a 2023 iMac)
Setting up was incredibly simple. The package includes both USB-A and USB-C cables, ensuring compatibility with all modern devices. Plugging in my 2.5" and 3.5" HDDs and SSDs was straightforward, with no need for additional tools or adapters.
Performance
The data transfer speeds are impressive. Using USB 3.0, I was able to achieve excellent rates, saving time when transferring large files. The offline clone function is a standout feature—cloning a drive without needing a PC is a game-changer for anyone managing backups or upgrading their storage.
Versatility
This docking station supports both 2.5" and 3.5" drives, making it incredibly versatile. I’ve used it for older HDDs as well as newer SSDs, and it handles both with ease.
Value for Money
Considering the functionality, build quality, and included accessories, the Alxum docking station offers fantastic value. It’s an indispensable tool for anyone who frequently works with hard drives.
Final Thoughts
If you're looking for a reliable, fast, and versatile hard drive docking station, this is the one to get. Whether you're an IT professional, a content creator, or just someone who needs to manage multiple drives, this product is perfect.
Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 January 2025Colour Name: Dual Bay- BlackVerified PurchaseDid the job quickly and easily, saved my hard drive contents from complete destruction when my original hard drive wouldn’t boot. Copied the contents to a new hard drive changed the boot instructions and it was good as new.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 August 2023Very functional, comes with leads etc. Great piece of kit to reuse all those redundant HDDs. Windows 11 recognised it right away no need for additional drivers. Clone function worked smoothly without hiccups. Good, basic kit that quietly does the job and stays out of the way. My only concern is that there is no way of unmounting the drive before power off so the is always a lingering doubt about data loss, however this has not been an issue yet. Recommended as a cost effective piece of kit.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 November 2021Great bit of kit for fast cloning of SATA hard disk drives. I'm using it both stand-alone and with a fairly recent PC (10th generation Intel i5 with Windows 10).
The twin-dock is quite flexible. Both docks work with either 2.5" or 3.5" drives.
You can clone either from one dock to the other (in which case it is stand-alone from a PC). This works well, at SATA III speeds of 6 Gbps if the hard drives support it (modern ones will do).
You can also use the dock as - in effect - an external hard disk bay for a PC by linking it with a USB C cable. This is picked up in, for example, File Explorer so the unit can be used for file storage or with cloning software such as Macrium to clone an internal PC drive to a bare SATA drive in one of the docks.
Unfortunately, the USB intermittently dropped out and reconnected. This was not an issue for me as Macrium or the Teracopy software I use for file copies cope with this and pick up where the file copy left off, but it did give an issue with File Explorer. My PC has multiple USB devices including legacy USB 2 devices, so this is just an advisory rather than necessarily a problem with the unit. USB controllers can get themselves in knots. But it did happen across different USB C ports, both directly on the motherboard and on a PCIe expansion card. Short of these intermittent drop-outs, it worked fine - but I'm personally happier with dedicated external drive enclosures which haven't given similar drop-out problems.
So four stars only for flexibility...
Decent unit overall, at a reasonable price.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2025Colour Name: Black-Type CVerified PurchaseSimple to install and load with disks and so far it works very well!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2023This unit allows you to plug in various sizes of hard drive and view the contents of each drive as well as allowing you to transfer data and have an additional storgae option. Useful piece of equipment. The quality of the unit is good, it is supplied with a suitable power lead which includes a transformer. Plugged it into a Windows 10 laptop and it worked on both without any problems.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2021This is a great product and I choose this model as I needed the USB-C connection. Speed is as advertised, fast and I got up to 6GB/s transfers at times. Later after copying stuff I also had it on for 2-3 weeks solid when transferring stuff and using it as an external hard drive hub for a while.
Only nag is that you can not do hot swaps! no options for that ! I think this is why most people reviewers here been getting data corruptions as they don't connect or disconnect the hard drives when they put it in the Docking station. For this to work without damaging your Hard drive you have to first put your hard drive in when station is switched off. Connect all USB cables and then start the docking station then your computer. When done, Eject from Windows , switch off your computer, then switch off the docking station and then take your hard drive out. You have about 10 seconds after you switched off your computer to do the above otherwise the docking station will restart reading your hard drive again !
Ps. Direct cloning did not work for me and if you want your data verified and safely copied doing through the operative system is best and fastest anyway!

Very simple to use. My WD external hard drive stopped being recognized on my computer. Watched some YouTube videos…. Disassembled it to isolate the hard drive from its casing and stuck it in the new Sata drive and was able to access all my data! Yay!
