Orico Hard Drive Dock Review

The Orico Hard Drive dock is the perfect accessory for the computer technician or general computer enthusiast.  If you are like me and you build computers as a hobby there is a big probability that you have a couple of internal hard drives knocking around and you want to be able to access the data on those drives without having to spend valuable time installing them into a computer.  Thanks to the team at Orico, these USB docks make it possible to be able to read and write to internal SATA drives in mere seconds.

The Orico dock has a professional and sleek design making it ideal to sit on your desk next to your workstation.  I was initially skeptical when I bought on f these docks for I was initially under the impression that it would look like a cheap piece of plastic.  However, after taking the Orico hard drive dock out of its packaging I was amazed at the high quality build and detail that went into its design.

The Orico hard drive dock is designed to read and write to 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch SATA hard drives.  The back of the dock has a USB port for the USB data cable that would connect the dock to your PC or Mac and there is also a power switch as well.  Speaking of power switches it is strongly recommended that the hard drive is put into the dock first before turning it on using the physical switch.

On the top of the dock next to the hard drive bay there is an LED which shows when data is either being written or read from the drive.
