PRODUCT Introduction
Product Description:
The Dyconn Dubbler Dock Pro+ 6-Bay is a powerful, versatile and
portable 1:5 HDD duplicator and docking station. It’s super fast transfer
speed 500MB/s makes data back-up and management quick and easy.
The Dubbler Dock Pro+ is compatible with 3.5/2.5 internal SATA HDDs.
What’s more, with a CF-SATA transfer card, the Dubbler Dock Pro+ is well
equipped to handle a CF Card.
Without a PC, the Dubbler Dock Pro+ can impressively perform sector by
sector copy/compare, regardless of le system or data format limitation. At
the same, connecting the Dubbler Dock Pro+ to a computer via USB 3.0

backup or upgrade has never been easier. CloneDrive effortlessly shrinks
the size of a partition on the Source HDD and clones the partition to a
smaller HDD/SSD. CloneDrive technology allows the Target drive
(HDD/SSD) to be able to boot and perform as the Source drive.
