About copying drives
You can use the SU2DUPERA11 to copy SATA drives in any of the
following configurations:
• SATA drive to SATA drive
• SATA drive to USB drive
• USB drive to USB drive
• USB drive to SATA drive
Copy a SATA or USB drive
Note:
You should avoid plugging SATA drives directly into the
SU2DUPERA11, as it puts undue strain on the device connectors. Use
the drive-connector cables instead.
Warning!
Make sure that the storage capacity of the target drive
is larger than or equal to the storage capacity of the source drive.
Otherwise, you will get an error when you try to copy your drive.
Warning!
After you begin copying a drive, don’t disconnect either
drive or interrupt the process before it has finished. Doing so might
result in damage to the drive or lost data.
