Instruction Manual 1

Introduction

The SATDOCK4U2E and SATDOCK4U3E Quad SATA Docking Stations for 2.5in and 3.5in hard

drives (HDD) and solid state drives (SSD) allows for up to four drives to be conveniently and

quickly accessed from a single device.

The SATDOCK4U2E allows four SATA drives to be paired and connected over USB 2.0, with

data transfer rates up to 480Mbps, with two USB connections or each drive can be connected

individually over a dedicated eSATA connection at up to 3Gbps, allowing for multiple computers

to simultaneously interface with a single docking station to access only a specic drive(s).

The SATDOCK4U3E features SuperSpeed USB 3.0 connectivity (also compatible with USB 2.0)

with data transfer rates up to 5Gbps (10x faster than USB 2.0) or eSATA with Port Multiplier

connectivity up to 3Gbps. This docking station provides fast connectivity to all 4 drives

simultaneously from a single connection.

Installation

WARNING! Hard drives require careful handling, especially when being transported. If you are

not careful, lost data may result. Always handle hard drives and storage devices with caution.

Hardware Installation

1. Connect the external power adapter from the hard drive docking station to an AC power

outlet.

2. Insert 2.5” or 3.5” hard drive(s) into the top loading slot(s). Make sure that the connectors on

the hard drive are facing the same corner of the slot that has a cutout in the door. The label

on the hard drive should face the front of the SATA docking station.

3. SATDOCK4U2E: Connect the HDD1/2 bays using either a single USB cable (USB1) or separate

eSATA cables (eSATA1/2) to a computer(s). Connect the HDD3/4 bays using either a single

USB cable (USB2) or separate eSATA cables (eSATA3/4) to the same or dierent computer(s).

SATDOCK4U3E: Connect the included USB cable or eSATA cable from the hard drive docking

station to an available USB or eSATA port on the computer system. The computer can be on

or o.

NOTE: If using eSATA, please note that the eSATA port on the host computer system must

provide Port Multiplier support. If the eSATA port does not oer Port Multiplier support, only

one of the installed SATA drives will be accessible.

4. Press the power buttons on the top of the hard drive docking station for each of the bays that

contain a hard drive. The Power LED around the power buttons should light up.

5. To remove the hard drive, make sure it is currently not being accessed by the computer and

the Activity LED is not ashing, then unmount or uninstall the disk drive from the operating

system (see documentation for your operating system). Press the appropriate power button

to turn o the hard drive and wait for the drive to power down. Press the drive ejection

button on the top of the hard drive dock to the release the drive, then pull the drive from the

slot.

Driver Installation

No driver installation is required for the supported operating systems, as this hard drive dock is

natively supported, so the drivers are already installed.

Instruction Manual 5

Using the Storage Device

Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7

If you are using a brand new hard drive that does not contain any data, then you will rst

need to prepare the hard drive for use. From the main desktop, right-click on “My Computer”

(“Computer” in Vista/7), then select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select

Disk Management from the left window panel.

Locate the Disk that says it is “Unallocated”(check hard drive capacity to conrm it’s the correct

hard drive) and then right-click in the section that says “Unallocated”and select “New Partition”.

Instruction Manual 6

The New Partition Wizard will appear. Follow the instructions in the wizard to complete setting

up the drive. Once complete, the Disk should show up as “Healthy” with a drive letter assigned

(i.e. E:). This drive letter should now appear within My Computer.

If you are installing a hard drive that already has data on it, then after plugging it in, the drive

should automatically show up with a drive letter assigned within My Computer.
