AVSGEAR ME-601S Hard Drive Docking Station
Predictor ME-601SD-S is a S.M.A.R.T. HD docking for 2.5" & 3.5" SATA Drive. It is brilliant in its simple structure for easy-to-use and Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology.
No need tools to assemble HD in an enclosure. Set your HD with Predictor Docking is absolutely more convenient and safer than having your dirve sit on the desk with SATA-to-USB adapters!
The S.M.A.R.T. feature of ME-601SD-S is an auto HD checkup function. When the hard drive is working with Predictor ME-601SD-S, the embedded S.M.A.R.T. firmware can receive analytical information from the hard drive, which means ME-601SD-S itself is a S.M.A.R.T. analyzer independently. As long as the S.M.A.R.T. attributes are close to or below the threshold of HD life span, the "Cution" LED of the Predictor Docking will be flashing as a reminder to the users.
Note that S.M.A.R.T. attibutes change slowly over time and are helpful attempts to diagnose the life span of a particular drive.
