I have a Dock II that failed yesterday. Looks like the power supply stopped. (OK - I disconnected the fan last year - too noisy)
You pay shipping and it's yours.

Just out of curiosity, how many hours a day/week on average have you used the dock?

I use it all day (8-10 hours typical). I sometimes travel - but it has been used 25-28 days/month recently.
I never noticed any heat - so the fan/failure relationship could be a coincidence - or it might not.
At $40 each on ebay these days - I'd rather have the quiet than the reliability

Without duration, frequency means nothing. I think he wanted to know not only that you used it 8-10 hours a day, but for how long. 1 year, 2 year, 1 month, etc.

Probably 8 months.
