5.1 Clone
The SCSI-NG has three modes of operation to clone SCSI drives. Drives can be cloned
using
Mirror (bit-for-bit copy) or Clever (copies only data areas, skips blank sectors,
and partitions can be resized).
In-depth details on the different screens found in the Clone operation can be found in
Chapter 4: Clone .
5.2 Hash
Any connected drive can be hashed. Performing a hash operation will instruct the unit
to calculate the hash for the specified drive or compare the hash value to an expected
value entered by the user. Three hash methods are available:
SHA-1 , SHA-256 , and
MD5 .
There are three selections when performing a Hash or Verify: Target , Settings , and Job Info .
When the unit finishes hashing the drive, the ‘COMPLETED’ screen will appear showing the task
completed.
Tap the Info icon on the left of the completed screen to see both the expected hash value and the
computed hash value.
