Yes, the docking station attaches by usb. My laptop is a bog-standard Toshiba Satellite L850 running Windows 7 Professional version 6.1 service pack 1. If it doesn't get fixed I will uninstall 2019 and reinstall 2016 and ask for a refund of the money I paid to upgrade to a useless product. The Acronis "support team" have no idea and don't seem to be interested in pursuing this problem, after I sent them multiple screen shots and system reports. I am sure if I purchased another docking station or usb hard drive it would work the first time only. It appears to me that the first attempt to clone to a "new" device succeeds but all subsequent attempts fail. Subsequent attempts failed with that message. So I purchased a new 1TB portable usb hard drive and attempted a clone to that, which worked. Subsequent attempts with the new docking station failed with that message. I wondered then if the docking station had somehow been damaged, so I purchased another and tried again and it worked. The disk is cloned but the failure occurs at what I think is the end of the process and when I look at the disk with the Windows disk management utility, it doesn't have a boot sector. I had an online chat with support who suggested I upgrade (for free) to 2019 and see if that fixed it. I upgraded to 2018, performed the first clone, which worked, but subsequent attempts failed with that message. I have a toshiba hard drive of slightly larger capacity in a docking station, and this clone worked perfectly for a couple of years. I used Acronis 2016 to perform a clone every week of my Toshiba laptop hard drive. Hello, I hope someone here can help with this because the Acronis "support team" is clueless.
