Overview
The LINDY USB 3.0 HDD Docking & Clone Station can be used as both
a dual HDD SATA docking station and standalone HDD cloning station
that creates a bit-by-bit clone of the source HDD onto a target HDD,
twice as fast as other USB 3.0 Cloning Stations.
The USB 3.0 HDD Docking & Clone Station also provides additional
features for Windows computers following the installation of the included
software.
A Software Clone function allows you to choose if you use an external or
internal hard drive as the cloning source for the target hard drive. It is
also possible to clone from bigger to smaller hard drives, with software
that resizes the partition accordingly.
Note - a completely full, bigger hard drive cannot be copied to a smaller
one.
FlashCopy allows cloning to be carried out twice as fast as with standard
Clone Stations, even via a USB 2.0 connection.
DiskErase allows you to completely delete the data on the hard drive
safely, securely and permanently.
