Connect and swap four 2.5/3.5? SATA III (6 Gbps) drives through USB 3.0 with UASP

The SDOCK4U33 four-bay�2.5/3.5" SATA HDD / SSD docking station lets you dock and swap four drives from your desktop or laptop computer�simultaneously, using a�single USB port.

Get the most out of your SATA III (Gbps) solid state drives�and hybrid drives with this UASP�(USB Attached SCSI Protocol)�enhanced hard drive docking station. With performance up to 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0 when paired with a UASP-enabled host controller, UASP ensures high performance by reducing bottleneck.�See our UASP testing results below for further details.

The hard drive dock�features independently-powered SATA connectors�for each individual drive, ensuring you can operate drives separately. This gives you the freedom�to hot-swap one drive while transferring data to�another,�saving you time. Plus, the built-in fans keep�your drives running cool, ensuring optimal performance and helps to prevent�premature drive failure.

Extend the value of this hard drive docking station further with the addition of our SAT2IDEADP" text="SATA to IDE Hard Drive Adapter (SAT2IDEADP), allowing easy insertion of any 2.5 or 3.5in. IDE hard drive into a SATA hard drive dock.

To ensure compatibility with your computer system, the SDOCK4U33�supports all of the leading operating systems, including: Microsoft Windows (8/7/Vista/XP/Server 2008/Server 2003), Apple OSX (10.9/10.8/10.7/10.6), Linux, and Google Chrome OS.

SDOCK4U33 is�backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

Improved Performance with UASP

UASP is supported in Windows 8, Mac OSX (10.8 or above), and Linux. In testing, UASP performs with a 70% faster read speed and 40% faster write speed over traditional USB 3.0 at peak performance.

At the same peak in testing UASP also shows an 80% reduction in required processor resources.

Testing results were obtained using an Intel Ivy Bridge system, a UASP-enabled StarTech.com Enclosure, and a SATA III solid state drive.
