Special thanks to Thermaltake for providing us with the BlacX Duet Hard Drive Docking Station to review It features dual SATA bays into which the user can drop a hard or solid state drive of any dimension and connect it to a computer via either USB or eSATA. The Blacx Duet Docking Station is one such product. WHY IS THIS THING SO CLUNKY? I was told you could swap disks on the fly - NOT TRUE! The Mac is not smart enough to realize that there are two separate volumes in the BlacX - if you eject only the one you swap, then remove it from the BlacX, you'll get the YOU DIDN'T EJECT IT RIGHT message, and now for the 3rd time, a drive is unusable - I have to reformat it, and re copy gigabytes of data back to it.Most well known for its lines of internal parts-cases, cooling units, power supplies and such-ThermalTake also has a few other lines, including its external storage enclosures and docks. Now again, I have to reformat one of the drives, because I did something (I don't know what) slightly out of sequence. In order to swap one in the BlacX, I have to eject BOTH of the drives, pull out the USB cable from the Mac, do the swap, reconnect the USB cable - and STILL sometimes they won't mount without powering the Mac off/on. Criminey, every time I look askance at my WD 2 TB drives in my BlacX, they fail! Don't come up, can't mount 'em, can't verify 'em, can't repair them.
