I. Installing drive into the HDD Duplicator
Note: Make sure that the capacity of the target hard disk is equal
or larger than the source hard disk.
For example, on the label of the hard drives, it might identify both
drives as 80GB but the actual size differs. And when this type of
drives are used on the HDD duplicator, when you start
duplicating, you will receive a “Target Not Ready” error. To
resolve this issue, you need to decrease the drive size of the
source drive. To do this, navigate to: 6.Setup > 6.2Copy Size and
use the button arrows to decrease the drive size of the source
drive by increments of 1%.
For installing ahard drive on the various enclosures that
come with the HDD duplicator, refer to the bundled
enclosure installation guides.

theSource drive into the drive bay. Push down the handle and

This will secure the drive and turn on the power to the hard drive.
Step 2
Slide in the Target drive into the drive bay. Push down the
handle and using the key provided, turn the key lock to the Lock
position. This will secure the drive and turn on the power to the

back of the tower.
