StarTech 1:2 Standalone USB Flash Drive Duplicator Eraser, 1.5GB/min, LCD

The product works like a charm. It was easy to use right out of the box and i bought it since they aren't making older IDE hard drive any more and the trend is to upgrade to SD hard drives. The device works great on making copies of flash drives and it also supports SD cards so it's ausome to have!!! I'm not sure if you have to buy the StarTech.com brand of memory card adapters but I did since they where only $20.00 either way this was the best one for it's value and it works great for doing backups! Either way great price for a great item that works like it should right out of the box!

Works great

Awesome unit for copying from USB flash drives to another USB flash drive. This is a professional device, I am extremely happy, Thank you very much for this purchase.

Just what I expected recommended 100%

a pure duplicator, cannot perform any other function.

Love this product is easy to use if you don’t know how to use it go to YouTube

Worked well at USB 2.0 speeds but copying storage over 300 GB was painfully slow. I bought 3 StarTech USB 3.0 Multi Media Memory Card Reader (SD / MicroSD / MMM) Adapters (the specifications say they are compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7/8/Mac OSX/Linux) and they worked well at USB 2.0 speeds in the StarTech USB 2.0 1to2 (1 input and 2 output slots) duplicator. When copying MicroSD cards using an SD adapter, I had some problems with Sandisk SD adapters but found the SD adapters with the MicroCenter label didn't have any issues. The StarTech Memory Card adapter didn't come with an SD adapter for MicroSD cards but does have separate slots for both SD and MicroSD (along with MMC and various Memory Sticks). Also, if you want to reduce some of the cost with USB 3.0 duplicators, try using a USB 3.0 multi-port hub connected to a computer to make duplicates. Ensure the multi-port hub comes with an AC adapter (not a USB cable) as each port needs as much power as a single port. It may take some effort when using a computer since copying files may have some limitations (such as file name lengths and full path lengths) depending on the Operating System (OS) version you are using.

I am always a little skeptical about innovative computer items, having been bitten a number of times. Example; USB to HDMI convertors, usually as reliable as a 1990's PCs! Anyway, this item is awesome. The easiest way to use this device is to plug your USB into the source slot (slot 1) and the intended copy or copies into slots 2 and/or 3. Press the power-on button and it quickly boots up, finds the original USB in slot 1 and with no further instructions from you, it clones all the data on the original to the USBs in slots 2 and/or 3. What I really like about this is that it erases everything on the USBs in slots 2 and 3 and you don't have to screw around with multiple copies on the same flashdrive. This is a stand alone device and your PC is not involved. Fantastic.

I needed to build several hundred USBs for work. I usually use multiple USB hubs and slowly copy data into them, but for whatever reason it's not been as smooth as it has been in the past. Lots of migration errors. So, I did some research because surely someone has come up with a standalone USB copier. And they have. The larger ones, with more ports, are incredibly expensive. But this one, with just 3 ports (1 for the source, and 2 to copy into) is the cheapest option I could find. But even being the cheapest, it's still a really functional and well built device. *** Pros *** - Self-contained unit, you don't need anything else (except power and the USBs) - Can be used to copy data, but also format - Includes instructions on how to use it, which are easily understood - Menu is easily navigated - Comes with power unit - Display is basic and functional, but bright and easy to read - Plug and play, with one button copy makes batch building USBs really easy - Times the total migration, so you can walk off knowing how long a migration will take - DoD level wipe is offered *** Cons *** - USB 2 speeds are slow. Migrating 10GB took ~20 minutes *** Overall *** I wish I bought this before. If you're creating a bunch of USBs and need to copy data from an existing USB, then I'd highly recommend that you consider this device over using a USB hub. More reliable, more dedicated to the role, and you don't need a computer on to run it.

Takes patience to learn but once I did I love it. So much time saved

Me encanto y agilizo los procesos para mi actividad, satisfecho.

Se puede usar para : Pendrive, discos duros por USB, mediante adaptadores también mvme a USB, Hdd con adaptador a USB ..... Genial

c'est un outil diablement efficace pour cloner une clé USB. Ce n'est pas très rapide mais le résultat est à la hauteur
