It is highly recommended to change the passwords for built-in accounts. Instructions
on how to change the passwords to the two built-in accounts can be found in
Chapter 6 .
3.1 Clone
The EchoPlus-NG has three modes of operation to clone virtually any drive
(Hard Disk Drives or Solid State 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 to fit larger capacity drives).

Drive to Drive – Clones a drive to one or more Target drives.
The next two modes are part of the Multi-Image Master option and are
greyed out (un-selectable) unless the option is purchased and activated.
The Multi-Image Master is an option that allows
Drive to Image and
Image to Drive modes to function, allowing the EchoPlus-NG to create
image files from Master drives and restore these images to other drives.
To purchase this option, contact the Logicube Sales Department at
sales@logicube.com .

Image to Drive – Restores an image created by the EchoPlus-NG to a Target drive.

Drive to Image – Creates a Logicube EchoPlus-NG image file to a target drive or
repository. This image file can be restored to drives using the Image to Drive mode.
The EchoPlus-NG cloning, hash, and wipe speeds are determined by
several factors including the following:
- The manufacturer specifications of the drive(s) being used
- The age of the drive (manufactured date)
- How often that drive has been used
For example, a 2 TB drive with 64MB of cache produced by the
manufacturer 2 years ago is most likely slower than a 2 TB drive that the
same manufacturer just released this year, even though they are both
7200RPM with 64MB of cache, and are both SATA III.
