What hard drive type can fit into your Systor duplicator?

A lot of clients are facing this question. They buy a duplicator, and then they want to add a hard drive. Well, starting this year, we've dropped IDE Duplicators production, and we manufacture only SATA duplicators (all of them are SATA, even the LightScribe and Blu Ray duplicators). So basically, any hard drive that connects on SATA or SATA 2, can be installed into your duplicator. You just need to follow a few steps :

  • Open your duplicator's case by unscrewing the screws on the back case
  • Search for the free blue SATA port on the back of controller
  • Connect a SATA cable to that port
  • Then, put a hard drive in the top bay of the duplicator (it's made for that, it has the size of a hard disk drive) and fix it with screws
  • Connect the SATA cable you've just connected to controller to the hard disk drive, and also connect a SATA power source cable, you'll find at least one free inside the tower
  • Put back the case, mount the screws, and start your duplicator

Now, after the booting part, your duplicator will recognize the hard disk drive, and will ask you about the partition size, because it will split the hard drive into partitions (CD, DVD or Auto size). We recommend chosing Auto size, because it will create a partition of your master disc size, each time you chose to load a disc image into the duplicator.

After loading images to your hard drive, simply select the hard drive as source, and fill the burning drives with blanks, select Copy and select the image you want to burn.

 

It's as simple as that.

  1. A hard drive in the duplicator decreases duplication time and increases the stability of the duplicator. Once the DVD or CD disc image is stored in the hard drive, the original source disc is no longer needed to perform duplication.

  2. You have described the steps really well. I followed them just as you described but after the booting part it does not ask me for the partition size. I will try redoing it from step one.
