Installation
Connect the duplicator dock
Warning! Drives and storage enclosures should be handled carefully, especially when
they’re transported. If you’re not careful with your drives, you may lose data as a result.
Always handle storage devices with caution.
1. Connect the external power adapter from the duplicator dock to a power outlet.
2. Connect one of the included USB 3.1 cables from the duplicator dock to a USB port
on your computer system. Your computer can either be turned on or turned o
when you connect the USB cable.
3. Press the POWER button on the top of the duplicator dock. The LED indicators
should light up to indicate that the dock is turned on.
Install a drive
1. Carefully align a 2.5 in. or 3.5 in. SATA drive with a drive slot on the duplicator dock,
so that the SATA power and data connectors on the drive are aligned with the
corresponding connectors that are inside of the drive slot.
2. Insert the 2.5 in. or 3.5 in. SATA drive into one of the drive slots.
Note: If you’re connecting drives for duplication, place the drive containing the data
that you intend to copy from in the drive #2 slot, and place the drive that you intend to
copy the data to in the drive #1 slot.
3. Press the POWER button to turn on the duplicator dock.
After the drive is installed and the duplicator dock is turned on, your computer
automatically recognizes the drive and it’s accessible as though the drive is installed
internally in the system. If your computer doesn’t automatically recognize the drive,
your drive probably wasn’t initialized or was formatted incorrectly.
Note: When you have two drives installed in the duplicator dock and you remove one
of the drives, the other drive temporarily disconnects as well.
Prepare a drive for use
If you install a drive that already has data on it, after you plug in the drive, it appears
under My Computer or Computer with a drive letter assigned to it.
If you install a brand-new drive that doesn’t contain any data, you must prepare the
drive for use.
If you use a computer that’s running a version of Windows®, do the following:
1. On the taskbar, click the Windows icon.
2. In the Search eld, type disk management.
3. In the search results, click Disk Management.

4. A dialog window appears and asks you to initialize the drive. Depending on the
version of Windows that you’re running, you have the option to create either an
MBR or a GPT disk.
Note: GPT (GUID partition) is required for drives larger than 2 TB but GPT isn’t
compatible with some earlier versions of operating systems. MBR is supported by both
earlier and later versions of operating systems.
5. Locate the disk that is labeled Unallocated. To conrm that the drive is the correct
one, check the drive capacity.
6. Right-click the section of the window that says Unallocated and click New Partition.
7. To initialize the drive in the format of your choice, complete the on-screen
instructions.
When the drive is successfully installed, it appears under My Computer or Computer
with a drive letter assigned to it.

Remove a drive from your computer
Note: Make sure that the drive that you want to remove isn’t being accessed by the
computer before you proceed.
1. To remove the drive from your operating system, do one of the following:
• On computers running a version of Windows, in your System tray, click Safely
Remove Device.
• On computers running a version of Mac OS, on your desktop, drag the drive to the
trash can icon.
2. Press the POWER button on the top of the duplicator dock and wait for the dock to
nish shutting o.
3. To release the drive, press the Drive eject button on the top of the duplicator dock.
4. Pull the drive from the drive slot.
Warning! Don’t remove your drive from the duplicator dock if the POWER button LED
is blinking, as doing so could damage your drive and result in data loss.
Using the duplicator dock
Duplicate a drive
1. Install the source and destination drives as per the instructions in the Install a drive
topic.
Note: If you’re connecting drives for duplication, place the drive containing the data
that you intend to copy from in the drive #2 slot, and place the drive that you intend to
copy the data to in the drive #1 slot.
2. Turn on the docking station.
3. Press the PC/Copy mode button for 3 seconds until the PC/COPY mode LED is
illuminated red.
4. Wait for the Drive LEDs for each drive to be illuminated blue before proceeding to
step 5.
Note: It may take up to 10 seconds for the LEDs to illuminate.
5. Press the START duplication button to begin duplicating.
The Duplication progress LED indicates how much of the process is complete. When
the drive is duplicated, the entire LED bar will be illuminated.
If the destination drive is smaller than the source drive, the LED for the drive that you’re
duplicating data to will blink red to indicate an error.

M.2 NGFF SSD Installation
WARNING! SSD Drives and storage adapters require careful handling. If you are
not careful with your SSD Drive, lost data may result. Always handle your drive 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.
1. Determine if the drive installation bracket requires relocating by assessing your
drive length. The board is labeled with the respective drive types for length but if
your drive type is unknown,place your SSD next to the M.2 (NGFF) SSD connector,
note which drive installation hole matches the height of your SSD. If the bracket is
already installed in the correct position please proceed to step 4.

2. (Only required if the drive installation bracket requires relocating) Remove the
screw holding the bracket in place on the reverse side using a Philips head screw
driver (Not included).
Note: There are screws located on either side of the bracket, ensure the reverse
screw is the one removed, see photo below.
3. (Only required if the drive installation bracket requires relocating) Reseat
the drive installation bracket in the drive installation hole that matches your SSD.
Replace the removed screw on the reverse side by driving it into place using a
phillips head screw driver.

4. Using a Phillips head screw driver (not included). Remove the screw located in the
front of the hard drive installation bracket.
Note: There are screws located on either side of the bracket, ensure the front screw
is the one removed, see photo below.
5. Slide the M.2 connector on the SSD into the M.2 receprical connector on the
SAT32M225.
Note: The connector on your M.2 SSD is keyed so the drive will only t one way.
6. Press the drive down toward the drive mounting bracket, and drive the removed
screw through the mounting hole on your SSD drive and into the drive mounting
bracket using a Philips head screw driver.
