- ڊرائيو تيار ڪريو: Insert the source SSD/HDD into the 'SOURCE' bay and the target SSD/HDD into the 'TARGET' bay.
- پي سي کان ڊسڪنيڪٽ ڪريو: Ensure the USB-C cable is disconnected from your computer. The cloning process will not start if the docking station is connected to a device.
- پاور آن: Connect the power adapter and turn on the docking station.
- Select Cloning Direction: Use the switch to select the correct cloning direction (e.g., M.2 NVMe or M.2 SATA to M.2 NVMe, or 2.5-inch/3.5-inch SATA SSD/HDD to M.2 NVMe).
- Initiate Cloning: Press and hold the 'CLONE' button for 5 seconds until the LED indicators start flashing.
- Confirm Cloning: Release the button, then press the 'CLONE' button again to confirm and start the cloning process.
- مانيٽر ترقي: The LED indicators (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) will illuminate sequentially to show cloning progress.
اهم نوٽس:
- The target drive must be equal to or larger than the source drive in capacity.
- All data on the target drive will be overwritten during the cloning process. Back up any important data on the target drive before proceeding.
- Cloning from M.2 NVMe to 2.5-inch/3.5-inch SATA or M.2 SATA is not supported.

Q: What happens if the target drive is smaller than the source drive during cloning?
A: The cloning process will not start. To clone successfully, the target drive must be equal to or larger than the source drive in capacity.
Q: Why can't I start the cloning process?
A: Please ensure you are following these steps correctly:
- Insert both the source and target SSDs.
- Use the switch to select the correct cloning direction.
- Press and hold the "Clone" button for 5 seconds. This step is crucial.
- When all LEDs start flashing, press the "Clone" button again.
- The cloning process will begin.
نوٽ:
- Make sure the target drive is larger than the source drive.
- Ensure important data is backed up, as the target drive will be overwritten.
