Инструкция по эксплуатации

A. Data Access Mode (Connected to Computer)

1. Убедитесь, что док-станция включена и подключена к компьютеру с помощью кабеля USB 3.0.
2. Insert one or two SATA HDDs/SSDs into the available slots.

4. Теперь вы можете получать доступ, передавать и управлять данными. files on the inserted drives as you would with any other external storage.

B. Offline Cloning Function

The offline cloning function allows you to duplicate a source drive to a target drive without a computer connection.

1. Подготовка дисков: Ensure both the source drive (the drive you want to copy FROM) and the target drive (the drive you want to copy TO) are SATA HDDs/SSDs. The target drive must be equal to or larger in capacity than the source drive.
2. Вставьте приводы: Insert the source drive into the 'Source' slot (HDD1) and the target drive into the 'Target' slot (HDD2).
3. Отключитесь от компьютера: Ensure the docking station is NOT connected to any computer via USB.
4. Включение питания: Включите док-станцию ​​с помощью выключателя.
5. Инициировать клонирование: Press and hold the 'Clone' button for approximately 3-5 seconds until the cloning progress LEDs (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) begin to flash.
6. Подтверждение клонирования: Release the button, then quickly press it again to confirm the cloning process. The cloning process will begin, indicated by the progress LEDs lighting up sequentially.
7. Мониторинг прогресса: The LEDs will indicate the cloning progress (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%). All LEDs will remain solid when the cloning process is complete.
8. Выключение: Once cloning is complete, turn off the docking station and safely remove the drives.

Важный: All data on the target drive will be erased during the cloning process. Back up any important data from the target drive before initiating cloning.

  • Verify that your operating system and drivers support USB 3.0 and UASP.
• Автономное клонирование завершается с ошибкой или не запускается:
  • Ensure the docking station is NOT connected to a computer via USB during cloning.
  • Убедитесь, что емкость целевого накопителя равна или превышает емкость исходного накопителя.
  • Make sure both drives are properly inserted and detected by the docking station (power and activity LEDs should be on).
  • Follow the cloning steps precisely, especially the press-and-hold and quick-press sequence for the 'Clone' button.
