Digitus dual M.2 NVMe SSD docking station USB-C offline clone function

The Digitus Dual M.2 NVMe SSD Docking Station (DA-71545) lets you manage two M.2 NVMe SSDs via a USB-C™ (USB 3.2 Gen2) connection. Each M.2 slot supports drives up to 4 TB, for a combined maximum capacity of 8 TB. The unit supports standard M.2 NVMe sizes 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 and accepts M-Key and B+M-Key NVMe modules. A one-touch offline clone button duplicates an SSD without a PC, while LED indicators show the copy progress. The dock is plug-and-play and does not require driver installation.

Advantages

Supports two NVMe M.2 SSDs simultaneously with transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps over USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen2). Offline cloning is possible with a single button press and copying progress is visible via LEDs. Compatible with common M.2 form factors and keying (2242/2260/2280/22110, M-Key and B+M-Key). Compact, black design and simple plug-and-play operation make it suitable for expanding storage or performing backups without additional software.
