Is the casing made from aluminum or plastic (RaidSonic is aluminium)?

I have no need for IDE anymore. On my bench I have The StarTech USB 3.0 to 2.5/3.5in SATA Hard Drive Duplicator Docking Station - HDD / SSD

It's great for pulling a drive out of a machine that may or may not boot to try to copy stuff off. I also use it a lot to copy HDD to SSD, or just cloning drives without having to use any software.
if you have two drives in, can you access them both? I don't need to do any disk duplications... just data copy - like backups

All the docks I have used will allow access to both drives simultaneously, it will just assign drive letters as needed.

The platter magnets work really well for keeping stuff on the fridge.

@coliver Yup, they do that indeed. Or keeping track of screws from other parted devices in repair.
