by connecting to a host computer system. Able to perform 1:3 sector duplication,
including HPA, from a single SATA drive onto three others simultaneously at a rate of
up to 72 MB/s, this duplicator can save time and eort. As an external dock, it can be
connected to your host computer through USB 3.0 or eSATA, providing data transfer
speeds up to 5 Gbps or 3Gbps respectively from the hard drives to your computer
system. Features Quick and Secure Erase functions and support for IDE hard drives with
an included SATA to IDE hard drive adapter (SAT2IDEADP).

WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling,
especially when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk,
lost data may result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with
caution. Be sure that you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static
strap when handling computer components or discharge yourself of any
static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such
as the computer case) for several seconds.
Hardware Installation (Docking Station/PC Mode)
1. Connect the external power adapter from the hard drive docking station to an AC
power outlet.
2. Insert 2.5in or 3.5in hard drive(s) into the top loading drive bay(s). Make sure that
the SATA connectors on the hard drive are facing the same corner of the drive bay
that has the 2.5in cutout in the door. The label on the hard drive should face the
front of the SATA docking station.
3. Connect the included USB cable or eSATA cable from the hard drive docking station
to an available USB or eSATA port on the computer system. The computer can be ON
or OFF.
NOTE: If using eSATA, please note that the eSATA port on the host computer
system must provide Port Multiplier support. If the eSATA port does not oer Port
Multiplier support, only one of the installed SATA drives will be accessible.
4. Press the power buttons on the top of the hard drive docking station for each of the
bays that contain a hard drive. The Power LED around the power buttons will light
up. The LCD display will also light up and display”PC Mode”. This indicates the unit
