I even replaced the dock with all different drives: no diff. The peculiar part is even if I plug the docking station to any of the USB 3.0 ports on the laptop it still starts giving the event viewer controller errors + 40-60 spin up/down. This has been on-going for many months now. Also, if you leave the docking station idle it starts making weird spin up/down sounds every 40-60sec and in the event viewer it remarks about this" Drive has experience a disk controller error" or something to that effect even though when I place the same dock into another laptop with Windows 7 not a fart of problems. no diff: try copying from laptop to one of the docking station's drives it immediately stops and shuts the device off. So it is possible that the driver is not as good as it could be.Ĭlick to expand.That was done a couple of months back when the new TB3 firmware came out, I flashed, no - Already tried using a full USB3.1 compliant device: StarTech 2-port Docking Station. The USB-C Dock I keep on rattling on about is suppose to fix all the issues with you being able to connect your 3.1 device to the dock and its drivers and setup drive the 3.1 devices.Īlso just for a simple test and something to keep handy is buy a cable that is USB-c male and USB 3.0 female and plug it into the USB-c port ( you will here a connection sound) then go to device manager and you will see under USB section the USB 3.1 controller driver, and YES its stupid Microsoft driver again. What I am saying its possible right now that there is no quick fix, its coming with USB 3.1 compliance testing. I have no access to other products that have a thunderbolt 3 controller to see if its an universal issue right now. Was getting incredible speeds just like what a SSD should produce, however same as you it failed/crashed and I even had to repartition and reformat the SSD and still it crashes. In other words thunderbolt 3 tech goes over many OS notebooks and peripherals, therefore there is a huge amount of testing going on right now so these type of devices work properly on all products etc.īTW this Dock sets up your network between 2 notebooks/computers through thunderbolt 3 port.Ĭlick to expand.I went out and bought an expensive Vantec USB C 3.1 case to house a Samsung 840 Pro 512GB SSD. Or are not up to the quality and performance required to use this technology.įor instance the best features and use, also affordable thunderbolt 3 dock I could find was a Caldigital product that I bought or paid for in march this year but the manufacturer who has been very candid with me tells me that it's all about USB compliance through a range of products. Sure it mentions MSI and other notebook manufacturers as compliant, however the actual devices to use this technology are non existent. The website where the driver and information came from, "Thunderbolt Technologies" is a website for a complete listing of all Thunderbolt, 2, 3, products. I see a query about connecting 2 notebooks together through a ? cable or USB-C Docking device.? A few years now and still no push by manufacturers to make devices for this technology.
