A remark on off-the-shelf cloning application: There are many cloning applications; only a few are working properly!
Some of the testimonials:
“The MediaClone SuperCopier Desktop unit works very well. The unit runs very fast in multiple session operations, and it is very easy to use. We have loaded many different kinds of partitions on the source drive, and the Quick Copy mode works very well cloning the source to many targets. The application supports GPT and MBR partitions with scaling and non-scaling, NTFS re-size works with different size targets, and the latest Windows 10 is very well supported.” Benny Potlog from Intel Israel
“For our purposes, being able to sanitize many drives swiftly is a serious need. We looked into several devices but they were usually made for single purposes that didn’t match what we were looking for. The MediaClone SuperCopier has allowed us to speed up cleansing drives dramatically as well as clone drives. It’s flexible and allows for many operations simultaneously. In the rare event of any issues, we have always received prompt support from MediaClone. The SuperCopier is very well constructed, simple to use, and reliable.” Warren Smite from Prosoftnet Calabasas, CA
“We have searched for few solutions that could help us to destroy our data from retired storage and came across MediaClone SuperWiper solution. I must say, it saved us lots of time erasing individual disks so we have decided to add the Disk Duplicator solution to clone drives. IT Folks love to be able erase data with DoD formatting tool and also provide audit trail for our auditors. Great product and I would highly recommend it.” Les Janeczko Manager, IT Infrastructure Fuzion Analytics

• Access/Control the unit remotely.
Example of a typical cloning operation:
For high volume:
SAS/SATA: clone 2 to 2 in two sessions, or 1 to 3 in one session
SATA (by utilizing the eSATA port and using the 8 USB3.1 ports with SATA to USB adapters): clone 1 to 10 in one session.
Example of an erase operation, or drive diagnostics: Utilize any of the unit’s ports to plug in a drive and run it in separate sessions (besides designated source ports 1 SAS/SATA and 1 USB).
Expansions and Options:
• NVMe 2 Drive Option: Supports to Clone and Erase NVMe SSD. The Kit includes M.2 Adapters and U.2 Extension Cables, and it supports M.2, U.2, and PCIE NVMe SSD.
• Add on additional four SAS/SATA ports: The 4 SAS Kit includes the 4 ports SAS controller, cables, and external power supply to power the four drives.
SuperCopier Cloning Application Settings:
Application Features:
The Application’s Main Operations:
Cloning/Duplication:
Drive Diagnostics Operation:
Logs, Erase Certification and databases: The application generates extensive erase and diagnostics log files, erase and diagnostics databases, and erase certifications (option to save to NIST 800-88 format) easy to export to USB flash drives. The user can add his company logo to the erase certification and add additional info on the erase runs that will append to the certificate.
Parallel Operations/Versatility with Multiple Cloning Sessions: Every drive cloning session must include one source drive and at least one target drive (The application supports cloning from one source to multiple targets). Also, numerous cloning sessions can run simultaneously. To run multiple cloning, the user needs to configure (reassign its role) some of the target ports to be source ports. For example, The SuperCopier desktop 8 SAS/SATA ports unit is configured with the first port as Source + Target 1-7 ports, so one possible cloning session: Source 1 ->Target 1+Target 2, Source 3->Target 4 (Where, in this case, the user reassigned Target 3 port to be Source 3). Another possible cloning session is to run four simultaneous cloning sessions of 1:1 can be achieved: Source 1 ->Target 1, Source 2->Target 3, Source 4->Target 5, Source 6->Target 7 (Where, in this case, the user reassigned Target 2, to be Source 2, Target 4 to Source 4, Target 6 to be Source 6). and many more possibilities. In addition, the user can select to run another type of operation in parallel to the cloning session, like HASH, Drive Diagnostics, Drive Erase, and more.
Drive Detection Application Screen: All drives and storage devices connected to the unit will be scanned and displayed on “The Detection Screen” screen. The user can tap on each drive model to get the drive’s detailed info and perform a specific operation on that drive, like resizing it. Also, the user can select the drive to run into the operation.
Continuous Mode: The user can run continuous operations with multiple sessions. Each storage device attached to the unit can be selected to run in an independent session. Each session does run independently of the other and can run simultaneously to maximize the use of the machine. When a session is completed/aborted regardless of the status of the other running sessions, the user can replace those storage devices with another one and start a new session – That is a continuous operation.
Multiple Sessions 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, the progress completion bar, and the successful completion flag. The user can abort a session, tap on a session to monitor its real-time running progress, and get the specific detailed setting for that run. It is a straightforward way to view, navigate, and control the sessions.
