Looking for a few things

[RoseburgHelpDesk]

Looking for a few tools good price and good performance. Please include links and prices. Thanks

1. Looking for a USB 3.0 connected Dock where I can connect SATA and IDE hard drives to backup hard drives with?

2. Looking for a 4 port KVM that I can use to connect to 4 PC's with 1 monitor, keyboard and mouse?

3. Thinking of using Macrium t backup drives, any other suggestions?

4. Any other tools used that are suggested?

I did try to look and I did find some info although some old posts, didn't have any real links, etc. I tried once to post to an old forum and basically got complaints that I resurrected an old forum. So now what?

Can't really help with the others, but for the Dock I like Startech ones.
One of the docks I have:
And the IDE (2.5 and 3.5" ) adapter to put into the sata dock above.

I've used Macrium Reflect Personal for my own computer, and I really like the interface. Tech license is kinda confusing to understand though. I've been testing Cloudberry recently though and it works good and does file-based backups too. Datto is another good one here that YeOldeStonecat recommends and I'll look into soon. Depends on what level of service you're trying to provide with backups though (business continuity vs disaster recovery, etc)

Yep, I like those as well. Inexpensive and it works. I have a couple of the dual docks, and also a single that features all of the slots - esata, 3.0 usb, 3.5/2.5 capability with and ide/sata adapter, and sd card slots as well.

That particular dock is model # satdockcrh, I found it here for $35.00. ide/sata adapter is another $20.00.
