Other World Computing (OWC®), a trusted leader in delivering high-performance, secure, and sustainable technology solutions that enhance and extend the life of Macs and PCs, today announced the general availability (GA) launch of the OWC Dock Ejector 2.0, the ultimate solution for efficiently and safely ejecting all connected devices, including SoftRAID and AppleRAID volumes. This updated version works with all docks, including non-OWC docks and hubs, expanding compatibility and drive protection to all Mac and PC users.

The newly enhanced OWC Dock Ejector takes the tedium and risk out of un-docking devices individually. By ensuring all data has been written before any disk is unmounted, you can safely eject your dock without worrying about losing or fragmenting files.

New in OWC Dock Ejector 2.0:

  1. Streamlined install process (new for Mac) - OWC is the first to ship software that enables high-power Thunderbolt dock ports without requiring reduced macOS security settings.
  • OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 eliminates the need for Recovery Mode and simplifies the process compared to competing docks, which require users to boot into Recovery Mode, lower Mac security settings, reboot multiple times, and install system extensions. With OWC Dock Ejector 2.0, simply install the software, approve the system extension, and you’re done!
  1. Enhanced Volume Mounting (new for Mac) - OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 simplifies volume management like never before. If you unmount a volume, you can easily remount it without the hassle of unplugging cables or using Apple's Disk Utility application.

“OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 is all about making your life on the go easier while keeping your data secure,” said Larry O’Connor, CEO and Founder, Other World Computing (OWC). “With features like safe drive ejection, seamless connection management, and timesaving simplicity, it empowers everyone – whether you're a creative professional, IT administrator, or tech enthusiast – to work more efficiently and securely, without ever compromising your macOS security settings. Never worry when you need to disconnect and go - we’ve got you!”

OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 Features and Benefits:

  • Data Security - Avoid data corruption by safely ejecting all connected drives with a single click.
  • Easy Connection Management - Optimized for seamless disconnection of storage devices and peripherals.
  • Security First - No need to compromise your macOS security settings.
  • Timesaving - Skip the tedious recovery mode process required by other docks.
