Where to buy
The AXAGON ADSA-M2C DUAL NVMe CLONE MASTER DOCK SuperSpeed USB-C 10 Gbps docking station quickly and easily connects up to two NVMe (PCI-Express) M.2 SSD disks to your computer. Comfortable connection allows reversible USB-C connector. You will find two cables to connect the box in the package - standard USB-C -> USB-A cable and also USB-C -> USB-C cable.
This little helper will give you the easiest and fastest way to connect up to two NVMe M.2 SSDs to your computer. You just take the M.2 card and insert it into the base, no tools or accessories are needed. Replacing M.2 SSDs is very fast and easy.
You can also use the docking station to easily clone the contents of connected NVMe disks without the need to connect to a PC. Insert the source M.2 disk into the first slot of the station (source) and insert the target M.2 disk into the second slot (target). Then you just press the clone button and watch the cloning process on a scale of four LEDs. After all the data has been copied, there is an exact copy of the original M.2 disk on the destination disk. The dock can thus be used as an autonomous device for convenient duplication and disk image creation. This is the easiest way to transfer the contents of one SSD to another SSD, including a working operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux...).
Fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface and NVMe Express support with UASP function support allow you to enjoy the speed of modern NVMe M.2 SSD disks. TRIM support to reduce gradual degradation of SSD performance over time. Reading S.M.A.R.T. information monitoring the condition of the connected disks.
Low docking station centre of gravity is for good stability. Rubber anti-slip pads prevent sliding on the table. Modern minimalist design of aluminum body.

FAQ
A): Drivers are included with operating systems and are installed completely automatically. The external box (adapter / docking station) is detected as a standard storage device, such as a USB flash disk, no additional drivers are needed.
B): No other drivers need to be installed and are not even available. If you continue to have problems with your external box (adapter / docking station), check out more tips that can help you troubleshoot problems.
A): If the external box (adapter / docking station) is not displayed in "Device Manager", there may be a USB port malfunction. It is also possible that your computer has a poor power supply to USB ports and the power is not sufficient to operate an external box (you can detect by listening that HDD is not spinning). This is a problem especially for older computers, where the source part already works at the limit of its parameters. In this case, it would help to use a USB hub, with an auxiliary power supply, by which the external box (adapter / docking station) would be connected to the computer.
B): Try plugging the external box (adapter / docking station) into another USB port, preferably on the back of your PC. The external box (adapter / docking station) should be detected and the drivers loaded automatically. If the problem persists, plug the external box (adapter / docking station) into the USB port of another computer to verify its functionality.
A): If this happens, it means that the operating system failed to get the necessary information to install the drivers.
B): The cause may be a defective USB cable or damaged device. If the problem persists, plug the external box (adapter / docking station) into the USB port of another computer to verify its functionality.
A): If this happens, it means that the Windows operating system did not assign a drive letter to the new storage device.
B): If the drive letter is not assigned, open "Disk Management", right-click on the desired drive and manually assign the drive letter. If the drive letter can not be assigned to the disk, it is possible that the disk is formatted as "dynamic". If you want to keep disk data, connect it to the original device and make a backup of the disk. Then convert it to a normal disk, initialize it to MBR (or GPT, see other points), and then perform Low Level Format (e.g. using the Low Level Format Tool)
A): The newly purchased disk must be initialized before first use.
B): If the new disk is not initialized automatically, open "Disk Management", right-click on the desired disk and initialize it.
A): By initializing the disk, you can set the mode in which the hard disk will work.
B): You can use the partition with the master boot record (MBR) or the GUID partition table (GPT). For disk up to 2TB, use the MBR option, we recommend selecting GPT on a larger disk than 2TB. Subsequently, the initialized disk should be formatted.
A): The external AXAGON boxes (adapters / docking stations) support the USB Mass Storage protocol making it easy to connect to TV.
B): When using a disk larger than 2TB, some TVs do not support GPT format. In such case, MBR format must be used when initializing a disk.
