SuperCopier Desktop Multi Channel Hard Drive Duplicator unit
It can be used to perform hard drive duplication, hard drive imaging, hard drive cloning, hard drive erase,
and hard drive quick format of many hard disk drives in a very fast and efficient way.
The unit performs at a very high transfer rate, in a very secured Linux environment, and with the most efficient user-friendly touchscreen icons application. The unit has a durable built, with a desktop style, featuring an 8 channels open tray for easy hard drive insertion and connection, 8 SATA/SATA-3 ports, 6 USB3.0 ports.
1) Imaging drives - 100% bit by bit with a mirror copy
2) Duplication drives with a Quick Copy/Advanced Smart Copy -
The application supports duplication of the files system only, from many source drives that have the following file system:
FAT/NTFS/exFAT/Linux EXT2-4 to many target drives. Also the application automatically performs partitions scanning on the source drive
and scale partitions on the target drives. User can chose to scale all partitions, selective scale partitions, or disable scaling.
The applicated is update to clone drives with Windows 10
3) Deploy drive - The application supports duplication of data from one source drive to many target drives
or from many source drives to many target drives up to 4:4
4) Erase operations - The application supports independent channel/port erase operations with the option to use erase protocols:
DoD, Security Erase, Enhanced Security Erase
5) Quick drive format - The application supports a quick format for NTFS, exFAT, FAT32, HFS+, and EXT4 file system
6) The SuperCopier application runs under secured Linux OS (Linux OS is not targeted by viruses and malware as Windows, for instance)
7) The unit has optional expansion hardware
(Express Card Port to supports 1394 devices or Expansion Port with Expansion Box to supports SCSI storage devices and more)

Parallel Operations:
Multiple Session Operations:
- • Versatility with Multiple Cloning Sessions: User can assign and selects one source and many targets into one session of cloning. Also user can have many sessions of cloning, each will have source and at least one target, which gives the user more possibilities to use the unit in a very efficient way. User can run a multiple efficient parallel operation on any available ports. There are some limitations on the number of simultaneous sessions: i7 CPU has 8 sessions limitation. However, user can combine more than one port/storage devices in the same sessions. Also. user can mix different type of operations, and each operation is set as a new independent session. Example of operations: Erase data with DoD protocol from a hard disk drive on one port, quick smart image on a second port and third ports, and so.
-
• Multiple Session Application Screen: All running sessions are displayed in one Application Screen. The application screen shows the name of the session, the operation of the session, the error or abortion flag, completion progress bar, successful completion flag. User can abort a session, tap on a session to monitor its real time running progress and get detailed setting. It is a very easy way to view, navigate, and control the sessions - • Hard Drive Detection Application Screen: All hard disk drives and storage devices that are connected to the units will be scanned and displayed in one application screen, called “the detection screen”. User can tap on each drive to get its detailed info, as well as selecting it for the desired operation they are planning to use
Ports:
• Native SAS: 8 Ports
• Native SATA: 9 Ports (with use of the unit’s eSATA port)

- With the use of Express Port Option enabled and the Optional Sonnet 4 SAS Ports Express Card Adapter, the application can supports up to 12 SAS Hard Disk Drives.
Network: - Save Images to local network
Erase and Quick Format Operation: - Hard Disk Drive Erase Protocols: DoD 5220-22M, Security Erase, Enhanced Security Erase, or User-Defined Final Data Filling Pattern, and the number of erase iterations (Security Erase, Enhanced Security Erase, and DoD erase protocols are NIST 800-88 compliance)
- Quick Format: NTFS, FAT, exFAT, HFS+, EXT4
- Logs and Erase Certification: The application generates extensive erase log files and erase certification (option to save to NIST 800-88 format) that are easy to export to USB flash drive
Expansion capabilities and the main hardware options: - Express Card Port Option: Optional port that needs to be pre-installed at time of purchasing in the main unit: This option gives the user the ability to plug and use a few kinds of Express Card Adapters and support erase data from additional interfaces and devices. This option is very useful and saves in most of the cases the need for an expensive and bulky Expansion Box. The Express Card Adapters can be dual port 1394A/B, PCIE memory cards (Sony SxS), Mini-PCIE that are not supported by SATA protocols (Are used in some MacBook Air, with M.2 (NGFF) form factor)
- Expansion Port and Expansion Box Option: Optional expansion ports that enable user to plug in an Expansion Box to add on many devices: User can configure the main unit with only one connectivity port or Express Card Port or Expansion Port. The Expansion Port is usually required when user needs to erase data from SCSI Hard Disk Drives. In addition to purchasing the Expansion Box, user can also purchase the SCSI 2 drives Kit which supports erase from 2 SCSI Hard Disk drives. The SCSI 2 drives Kit includes all the cables, terminators and adapters that are needed to operate 2 SCSI hard disk drives. (The SCSI controller is installed inside the Expansion Box). The Expansion Box is also supplied with a low profile Express Card Reader pre-installed inside the Expansion box
- USB3.0 to SATA adapters and Kits Option: Today USB3.0 technology is extremely fast and can run read data from SSD drives up to 20GB/min.With the use of USB3.0 to SATA 4 channel Kit, user can convert 4 USB3.0 ports to 4 SATA ports on any of MediaClone unit. The optional Kit is supplied with one external PS and it includes all the cabling to power and connect the 4 USB3.0 to SATA adapters. The tested performance when running 4 adapters in parallel was measured at a very high speed and very little speed degradation.
- SCSI KIT Option: The SCSI Kit includes the low profile PCIE X1 SCSI controller with single port, 2 channel SCSI LVDS cable (68pin connectors), SCSI terminator, and VHDCI to SCSI 2 adapter
- 1394 Option: This option is supplied with 1394A/B Express Card. It is a very easy and quick way to add support for 1394 devices that can be daisy chained. This option works on units that support, and installed with Expansion Port or Express Port Options
- USB3.0/SATA to M.2 (NGFF) adapters Option: Most current laptops and tablets use M.2 (NGFF) Storage devices. This adapter supports connectivity to some of the newest SSD M.2 digital storage (Storage that supported by SATA Protocols). There is a class of SSD drives, with NGFF connectors, that are not supported by SATA protocols, and are not supported by those adapters. The M.2 NGFF connectors, for instance, came in a variety of models, and were not standardized until 2014
- USB3.0/SATA to M.2 (NGFF) PCIE base adapters Option: Few adapters are available that supports PCIE, MIni PCIE base SSD that are been used in MackBook Air 2012+, MacBook Pro Retina 2012+
