Forensic Office Dock™
• A snap to install and use – Office Dock features a SafeEject™ IDE connector to save on wear and
tear. SafeEject's special ejection levers help prevent bending IDE pins. An on/off switch and
power/access LEDs make operation easy.
• Hot-swappable – No need to restart the computer between data acquisitions. Just connect the drive,
turn on the dock, and you're ready to go!
• Optional adapters allow access to all kinds of drives – Office Dock comes ready for use with 3.5"
IDE drives, and works with many other drives (including SATA drives) via WiebeTech's lineup of Combo
Adapters.
• Aluminum design – Both durable and attractive.
Forensic Device User Advisory
We recommend that you perform a final check on this product.
Prior to first use, please verify that the write-blocking function of this product is working properly. This is
easily done: attach a known good formatted drive, and verify that the drive mounts properly on your
computer. Use a drive that has data on it that you are willing to overwrite. Transfer files to the drive. The
files will appear to transfer to the drive. Thereafter, unmount the drive and remount the drive. The files
that you wrote to the drive should not appear after the drive is remounted. If they do appear, there is a
problem with your Forensic Device, and you should contact our support department for further
instructions.
