USB 3.0 SATA docking station

The LORDWORLD DK100 is a USB 3.0 to SATA docking station that lets you connect bare 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SATA hard drives or SSDs to a computer without an enclosure. It is aimed at technicians and home users who need quick, tool-free access to drive contents for recovery, cloning or archiving.

Capacity headroom and throughput

The adapter supports SATA I, II and III drives up to 20 TB, so current high-capacity mechanical disks and SATA SSDs fit comfortably within its addressable range. Data moves over USB 3.0 at up to 5 Gbps with UASP support, while the built-in heat sink and auto-sleep after 10 minutes of inactivity keep the drive cool and protected during long transfers.

Deciding specification

The single factor that determines suitability is the USB 3.0 host interface: the host must provide a USB 3.0 Type-A port to reach the stated 5 Gbps rate, otherwise the dock will fall back to slower USB 2.0 speeds. No drivers are required for Windows XP through 10, macOS 10.4 to 10.11 or Linux kernel 2.4.2 and later.
