Mirror Clone™ Mode

This mode simply makes a bit-by-bit mirror copy of
the Master drive. It does not adjust any values. This
mode is only recommended when all else fails and
even then only between similar geometry drives. It
is also recommended for non-Windows partitions
like UNIX, LINUX and other such systems.

NOTE: Drives in a RAID array have dynamic or
striped partitions and also need to be Mirror Cloned.
When cloning a multiple drive RAID array, each
drive in the array needs to be Mirror cloned to an
identical Target drive.

You can dial the percentage of Master disk you
wish to mirror. For example, setting to 50% will
mirror the first 50% of the Master drive’s size.

Mirror Clone™ Step-by-Step

1. From anywhere in the menu system click the

Set” button to enter the Settings menu.

2. Press the Cloning Mode icon that appears in the

upper left-hand corner. A list of the available
cloning modes appears.

3. Press the “Mirror” icon.

4. A screen appears asking you what percentage

of the Master drive to clone. Touch the numeric
keypad to adjust this value from 0 – 100%. If a
value of 99% or less is chosen for the FRONT of
the drive, the unit will also ask for a percentage
from the REAR of the drive. This value can be
set to the total size of the remaining space.

For example, if you were to enter 20 for the front
and 30 for the back, Mirror Clone would copy the
first 20% of the Master drive, skip over the next
50% and clone the remaining 30%.

5. You may now double-click the “Start/Stop

button to start cloning.
