The product is great however the paper-based user guide was very sparse andĪbout the cloning and OTB facility only. Please refer to the table below, which shows the models and their capability. All the models have a one touch backup (OTB) facility, however not all have the one touch cloning (OTC) facility. Many computers provide a socket such as this for connecting external mass storage devices. If you have never heard of eSATA, then it is simply SATA with a special plug and socket arrangement for connecting external storage devices. These docking stations are compatible with XP, Vista, Windows 7, MAC, and Linux operating systems. It connects through a USB 2.0 port, and does not have an integrated card reader. Model 875D is the basic version known simply as "IDE / SATA Docking". It is a backup and cloning solution with an integrated card reader, supporting CF, SD, XD, MS, and Mini SD, T-Flash, and Micro SD formats up to 32 GB in size. the fact that it supports sata II and not 3 is concerning there, as it might be using an old controller.The "All in One HDD Docking" is a docking station, which accepts 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch IDE and SATA hard disk drives (HDD) up to 2 TB in size. Oh, and are you COMPLETELY sure the dock plays nice with >1tb drives? not all do. It's an intermittent problem i've had for years.(which a couple times has resulted in me having to use data recovery tools because i had no other system around to get at the files, ugh) I'd be willing to bet if you plug the drive into another USB interface that's known to work with the mac, and connect it, that it will still say it wants to initialize.Ĭan you copy the data to a local drive or another drive, format it with the mac(make sure it's MBR partition table!) as Exfat or something, and then try again? For some reason macs are just assholes about certain drives that were formatted by certain systems. The driver is likely just for the card reader and stuff, if that. I'm willing to bet you can't find a mac driver because it doesn't include one and there never was one, and it just isn't needed. I own a couple, and both have worked with every mac i've owned for the past few years plug and play. What format is the drive? I've never, ever seen one of these docks need a driver on a mac.
