Can i access two hard drives at once with this device or does it switch from one to the other?

Yes, you'll be able to access both drives at the same time. You can also use Offline Cloning from 1 drive to another.

Supports hard drives up to 10TB really?, I can't find any specification on the web site

Our EC-HD2B will work well with 20TB drives. It has recently been tested and validated to work with native 4K sector drives including ones that are up to 20TB in capacity per bay

would this station allow one drive to handle time machine backups and the other drive separately handle playback of audio files?

Yes. Both drives appear as two separate volumes accessible independently.

Can this be used to format a drive or is it just a cloning device?

Think of this device as an external hard drive. The difference is you get to plug in internal drives to it and work with them however you desire. If you buy a new, unformatted, unpartitioned HDD (which is standard), you will go to DiskManagement in Windows and initialize the drive for use. I like this device especially for backing up and cloning drives. Acronis True Image 2021 is my current tool of choice for these options.
