HD325AESI | Addonics Compact 1:1 HDD/SSD Duplicator PRO-S

Addonics Compact 1:1 HDD/SSD Duplicator PRO-S

The Addonics Compact 1:1 HDD/SSD Duplicator PRO-S is one of the most versatile drive duplicators in the market. This duplicator can be used to copy practically any SATA or IDE HDD/SSD in 3.5" or 2.5" form factor. The included Diamond Cipher II enclosure (drive carrier) also enable copying data directly to or from a hard drive with AES 256-bit hardware encryption. Using Addonics optional 2.5" flash drive kits, this duplicator can copy a variety of popular flash media such as M2 SATA SSD, mSATA SSD, CFast card, CF card, Micro SATA HDD/SSD or slim SATA SSD.

Similar to other members of the Addonics HDD Duplicator family, this PRO S model is also simple to use and operate. Just load your master hard drive to the source drive bay and another hard drive of capacity equal or larger than the source drive to the target drive bay, turn the key lock on each drive bay to the lock position and push the start button to start the copying process.

Front view (shown with Diamond Cipher II enclosure in top bay)

• Top bay supports SATA, IDE or Addonics AES 256-bit encrypted drive using the included Diamond SATA, IDE or Diamond Cipher II drive enclosure
• Bottom bay is a Snap-In drive bay that supports 3.5" SATA HDD or 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD via a included 2.5" - 3.5" drive adapter. Drive is directly loaded into the drive bay without any special tool.

Rear View

• Top and bottom bays can be set to either Source or Target bay depending on the Source/Target switch setting on the back of the unit

The following drive enclosures are included in this duplicator: Diamond SATA Drive enclosure (DSACSB), Diamond IDE Drive enclosure( DICSB) and Diamond Cipher II Drive enclosure (DCSA6GCS). These drive enclosure are for loading into the top bay. With these enclosures, the top bay can use either SATA, IDE or Diamond Cipher II encrypted drive in 3.5" or 2.5" form factor as a source drive when the top bay is set as source bay (factory default setting) or as a target drive when the top bay is set as a target bay.

Optional Diamond IDE ExDrive

To copy from IDE drive to IDE drive, an optional Diamond ExDrive kit (model DIEDES) is required. Unplug the small eSATA cable from the target port (TP) at the back. Attach the Diamond IDE ExDrive kit to the target port (TP). The Diamond ExDrive kit now becomes the target drive. Load the included Diamond IDE drive enclosure into the top bay as the IDE source. The Diamond ExDrive kit also add flexibility to copy data directly from or to a Diamond Cipher II encrypted drive

Supported drive copying options

Features

• Copy any 2.5" or 3.5" hard drive / SSD to any 2.5" or 3.5" hard drive or SSD with AES 256-bit encryption and vice versa*
• Copy any 2.5" or 3.5" SATA hard drive / SSD to 2.5" or 3.5" IDE hard drive / SSD or vice versa
• Great for cloning hard drives, making back up hard drives, system upgrade, and data distribution
• Top bay supports SATA, IDE or Addonics AES 256-bit encrypted drive using the included Diamond SATA, IDE or Diamond Cipher II drive enclosure
• Bottom bay is a Snap-In drive bay that supports 3.5" SATA HDD or 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD via a 2.5" - 3.5" drive adapter. Drive is directly loaded into the drive bay without any special tool.
  
• Top and bottom bay can be set to either Source or Target bay depending on the Source/Target switch setting on the back of the unit
• Any eSATA drive can be attached to the Source or Target port for use as a Source or Target drive
  
• Support any type of file format
• Typical copying speed¹~ 85 MB/sec
• No drive capacity limitation
• Drive sanitization:
• SECURE ERASE - HDD duplicator sends a WIPE command to the hard drive. This command fills 00 string to entire HDD
• OVERWRITE - One pass, 3 passes, and 7 passes 5220.22-M. The duplicator writes a string of pattern over the entire disk one time, three times or seven times.5220.22-M is the DoD standard for drive sanitization
• Encryption*
• LCM control module provides a rich set of robust advanced configuration options (click Full LCD console feature list to see the complete list of the duplicator functions)
• Operate as a stand-alone appliance. No computer or software needed

* This Duplicator PRO-S comes with all necessary drive enclosures to copy data from a hard drive with no encryption to another hard drive with AES 256-bit encryption to secure your data. To do so all is needed is to install a standard hard drive in the source bay (the bottom bay set as source) and a target drive into the Diamond Cipher II enclosure (top bay set as the target). The data copied into the drive inside the Diamond Cipher II enclosure will automatically be encrypted. Please note that all the information encrypted with the Diamond Cipher can only be accessible with Diamond Cipher enclosure or the Addonics Cipher Chain. To understand the detail on how to encrypt the hard drive with a Diamond Cipher II drive kit or Cipher Chain II, please visit the Diamond Cipher II and Cipher Chain II web pages.

Please note that if the AES 256-bit Diamond Cipher II enclosure is used as a source, the hard drive inside must already be an encrypted hard drive prepared with the Diamond Cipher II enclosure, putting a regular hard drive inside the Diamond Cipher II enclosure to use as a source will result in copying a blank drive.

1. The speed here is for reference only. The speed was measured basing on using 3.5" SATA III 250 GB hard drive for both source and target. The transfer rate varies depending on the speed of the source and destination drive
