ABOUT DUPLICATION:
1. All data in HDD2 will be deleted once duplication starts.
2. The capacity of HDD2 must be equal or bigger than HDD1. If the capacity for
HDD2 is bigger than HDD1, the capacity remaining in HDD2 upon completion of
the duplication can be formulated to a new partition. Follow the HDD formatting
guide in this manual for further instructions.
3. If the original drive was initialized using MBR, the copied drive will be MBR
upon completion. If the original drive was initialized using GUID Partition Table
(GPT), the copied drive will in GUID Partition Table (GPT) upon completion.
4. Using of both of the same HDDs under the same OS after clone operation
completes may result in drive's signature conflict, thus having the 2nd HDD
unrecognized & forced to "Offline" status. To have both HDDs work under the
same OS, right click the "Offline" wording and select "Online". Doing so will have
this HDD assigned with a new drive's signature, which makes it NOT identical to
the source Hard drive (HDD1). This practice will is not recommended for those
intending to use the cloned Hard Drive (HDD2) as a system or replacement drive
with the original HDD.
