very good improvement over my old unit.  runs two additional monitors easily, fits under my laptop nicely, and is virtually trouble free.

computer is great but the docking station provided is defiantly for an older model elitebook. instead of the displayport on the dock i have an s-video output on the dock and no ESATA port, s-video has been outdated for a while even in 2011 it was outdated. ordered the correct docking station for $44. overall this system is still a more than able computer. I am running windows 10 home, upgraded the RAM to 8gb and installed a 250gb solid state drive. system boots to desktop in 8 seconds because of the SSD. system works very well with no lag. i do not use this for gaming but the few games i have from the windows store work quite well. i purchased the correct dock with the displayport and purchased a displayport to HDMI cable to watch HD movies from itunes on my tv, the displayport output quality if fantastic on a 60 inch tv.  i wouldnt expect 4K output from this system but full 1080P isn't a problem. system has one extra micro PCI express socket and antenna leads for a cellular card, system also has a SIM card slot under the battery. i purchased the cellular card separate  (HP Ericson HS2340 HSPA F5521 WWAN Card)  and have service through TMobile and it works quite well as long as the flip out antenna on top of the screen is extended. bottom line, this works as well as a new basic laptop and even though it is now a 5 year old computer, it is still more than able. i did want to upgrade the CD-rom drive on the dock to a bluray drive but since the drive is connected via a built it USB to SATA bus in the dock it is still limited by USB 2.0 connectivity and thus does not have the bandwidth to handle playing a bluray movie at full definition. a workaround is to purchase a USB 3.0 expresscard that fits into the side of the laptop and then use a USB 3.0 external bluray drive since USB 3.0 has the bandwidth. another option is to use the ESATA port on the dock and get an external ESATA bluray drive.

update: 8/15/16

system still works fantastic, I did upgrade the cd-rom to a Blu-ray drive and am pleased to announce that USB 2.0 can handle Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D playback with no lag or hangs

When I initially bought this to replace my older Surface Pro 3 docking station, I had all sorts of video problems.  Turned out that the adapters that I was using were passive adapters, they worked fine on the older docking station, but the new Surface Dock requires active adapters.  I ordered two of the adapters below a few months ago and it has been working flawlessly ever since, love it!!

Easy install and cloning for me! with Samsung Software. I have a USB  docking device for cloning.  The average user may have to find a computer technician for installation.
Works well!  Noticeable speed increase loading and performance.
This was installed in an older Samsung Laptop.

Plugged right in.  Unfortunately it was not the problem.  The docking station is NFG.

This is a USB3.1 Type-C Lay-Flat Docking Station. Which is nice and convient when laying flat. Doesnt seem to take up too much space. This docking station took a 250gb, and transfered over with no problem at a very short time. I recieved this at no cost to me for my review, and unbias opinion. My husband is the one that understands all the technology in the house, and found that this was fast, and easy to use, and understand.  He stated this was nicely made. I have included pictures to show what he was doing.  This does come with a users manual for those who are not so sure how to use.

I bought this item to connect an HDMI cable to a docking station for laptop use. (docking stations don't have HDMI out) It performed very well.  Audio went through the display port as I had hoped.  No need to run a separate audio cable.  I have 15 of these in use now.  They lock to the dock and stay in place.  Sometimes there is no picture due to HDMI cable is loose. Only reason not 5 stars is still no way to lock HDMI cable into it.  Would be nice if some sort of pressure screw were added.  Would recommend these to anyone needing to add HDMI to a docking station.

It's a slick design and fits thhe current Latitude and precision notebooks. Some users did complain it's missing the shelf of the previous monitor dock.

Love it, but you need to advertise you CANNOT use it with the docking station which defeats the purpose.  So I will find a home for it, but I use my docking station too often for it to be practical at this point.

Worked perfectly for my requirements I have a dell D3100 docking station which came with a very short usb cable I purchased the 9 ft. cable and it worked flawlessly

Pretty simple device and worked well for my Surface docking station to get all USB cables to clear.  Be aware of right vs. left adapters to make sure they fit!

This hard drive docking stations makes data transfer fast and easy.

Upon opening the box, I was first surprised by the build quality of the docking station. The unit is made of plastic, but very solid.

Since this docking station is USB 3.0, this makes for faster data transfer speeds. The USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0/1.1, just with reduced speeds.

When I first went to insert a 3.5 inch hard drive, I thought I would have to remove the door that is used for the 2.5 inch hard drives. I was in for a big surprise, the door is not removable but is spring loaded. After pushing the hard drive through the trap door, I was off to the data transfer race.

The best part of this docking station is being able to use 2.5 and 3.5 inch hard drives without have to change or remove anything.

I was supplied a sample for the purpose of review.

A great 2-in-1 device at a great price.  I wish docking were a little easier (and a little less expensive).  Maybe 4 USB ports instead of 2 would be nice, but I'm sure size considerations kept that from happening.

I use this on my docking station as it only has 2 USB3.0 ports on the back of the dock. The cable length is just right to keep it slightly to the right where it is easily accessible and giving me 4 USB3.0 ports. I'm able to get some stable performance and it's very convenient. I'm docking it one star because it's rather bulky which is why it didn't make the cut into my backpack.

I decided it was time to move to a USB 3.0 enclosure after my Thermaltake BlacX USB 2.0 enclosure bit the dust. I decided to go with the Sabrent USB 3.0 to SATA External Hard Drive Docking Station for 2.5 or 3.5in HDD/SSD , as there was a reasonable deal going on, so I decided to snag one to use for all my internal hard drives that I needed access to.

The Pros:
- This docking station gets the job done exceptionally well. The USB 3.0 speeds for transferring files is quick and reliable. Once you go USB 3.0, you won't want to go back to 2.0
- All of my hard drives have been recognized so far while running on Windows 8.1.
- Very easy to set up. Hard drives are hot-swappable.

One thing that you have to be careful for is build quality. It's just OK. Don't expect something super sturdy. Mine has a special case in which the power button won't "click" when I press it, requiring multiple attempts before it sticks and powers on.

Overall, it's a good investment if you need something cheap and reliable. Just make sure it's in a place where it won't be knocked around by human interference.

Great Docking features - better than others. Allows two concurrent HD monitors (DVI and HDMI), includes additional ports 4 USB 3s and 2 USB 2s, HD sound, Ethernet port - 1Gps with USB 3 connect to laptop / tablet!

Connected simply on startup. Little setup other than updated drivers.

Only con - HDMI to DVI converter missing for easy dual monitor support.
