About Use of this device

2 separate volumes will be recognized. Either 1 or 2 HDDs can be used at
the same time.
 To operate Clone operation, this device requires 2 HDD/SSDs, whereas no
restriction of number of HDDs is required on Erase operation.
 Removing HDD during clone or erase operation is forbidden. This will result
in failure and stoppage of the operation.
 Using of both of the same HDDs under the same OS after clone operation
completes may result in signature conflict, thus having the 2

unrecognized & forced to “Offline ” status as below shows. To have both

This practice is not recommended for those intending to use the cloned
HDD(HDD2) as a system or replacement drive with original HDD.
