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.
