VALUABLE data stored on a hard disk needs to be backed up, in case something bad happens to the device.

The backup process can be long and tedious, more so when we are looking at 1TB of data and above.

What's worse is that the copying process could run into a hitch in the middle of the operation, wasting time and effort, and forcing one to start all over again.

The Bytecc HDD/SSD (hard disk drive/solid-state drive) standalone duplicator simplifies and speeds up the task.

All one needs is to plug a hard disk into the source slot and an empty drive into the target slot, and press a button.

Some hours later (it is definitely much faster than copying via PC), a duplicate drive is created, and one does not even need a PC to do this.
