Q1 Was ist der Unterschied zwischen den Duplizierern der SATA Serie, BD Serie, BD-L Serie?
     
 
Following the development of market, UREACH develop various kinds of CD/DVD duplicator to fit customers’ need. And each one of them has its own specific characters which helps customers to make the best choice, such as :
Model SATA series BD series BD-L series
Target 4 / 7 / 11 / 15 1 / 4 / 8 / 12 7 / 11
Visual Identification One layer green PCB control board Double layers green control boardBackend-located SATA ports One layer blue PCB control board
Characters SATA series duplicator is the first one using DDR2 buffer memory which help to achieve high speed duplication and support 12xBD, 24xDVD, and 52x CD copy speed. Also Buffer from 128 to 512MB makes the duplication job more reliable and enhances the compatibility with different combination of optical drives and discs. With separate digital and analog control board design, BD series duplicator eliminates any signal interferences. This approach greatly increases stability and success rate for high-speed duplication. In addition, the design of backend-located SATA ports help to meet the easy-assembling concept and greatly achieve the goal of elegant simplicity inside the duplicator. Based on UREACH controller’s reputation of high compatibility technology, the BD-L series is specially designed to support low cost verity of B grade discs and drives for providing a reliable and friendly duplication solution.

BD-L Series controller has high compatibility supporting to all major optical drives and discs without limitation on the level of discs and drives. It allows you to apply the reader and writer based on the most profitable selection.
 
     
Q2 How come the duplication would be fail ?
     
  Mostly we find the compatibility issue between optical drives and discs is the main factor affecting the result of duplication. To get better quality of duplication, it’s recommended that :  
 
1. Make sure the quality of CD/DVD: the better blank discs you use will generally provide better results of duplication. A scratched Master disc or a disc with obvious physical damage may cause the duplication failed.
2. Make sure the type of CD/DVD: If the source disc is copy-protected disc, the result of duplication may be failed; Also, if the blank disc is not compatible with the source disc, such as copy from DVD to CD, or from DVD9 to DVD5, it may cause you unable to finish the duplication.
3. Make sure the working environment: it is important to keep the duplicator in a clean environment ,and  the fan on the rear of the duplicator should be kept clean and allowed enough space for air flow.
4. Make sure the reader or the burner is stable: the reader and burner are the key to a successful duplication job. So it is also important to select qualified reader and burner for the duplicator.
5. Make sure the duplicator is working with sufficient power supply.
 
     
Q3 Can I copy 80mm mini discs? Any limitation on discs’ size or types ?
     
  UREACH CD/DVD duplicator supports all sizes of CD/DVD disc, including mini discs. For the best duplication job, we strongly recommend you to use qualified CD/DVD discs, and not to run duplication with different capacity discs.

 
     
Q4 What is the maximum speed can your CD/DVD duplicator reach ?
     
  UREACH CD/DVD duplicator support 12xBD, 24xDVD and 52xCD duplication. However, disc copy speed depends on the disc itself and the drive. If you use a blank BD disc which support only up to 8x , then the real copy speed can only reach to 8x maximum.

 
     
Q5 How long does it take to finish one round DVD duplication with full 4.7GB data in source ?
     
  The duplication speed is correspond with the speed of disc and drive, UREACH CD/DVD duplicator can support 24xDVD. As for the most popular 16x DVD disc, it takes around 5~6 minutes to finish one round DVD duplication with full 4.7GB data in the source.

 
     
 
 
Daisy Chain Duplicator
Q1 How many drives can be connected with Daisy-Chain technology ?
     
  UREACH’s Daisy chain duplicator is the leading edge of Blu-ray/DVD/CD duplicator technology. It can support maximum up to 255 (1 to 15)towers linkage to create maximum over 4000 pieces of disc in just one run duplication. There is no doubt that this technology can fit your need once you’d like to do mass production.  
     
Q2 Would your Daisy-Chain contribute to unstable duplication ?
     
  The UREACH Daisy-Chain uses “Asynchronous” technology which makes it possible of nonstop duplication. When copy start, the data will be loaded to each duplication tower’s HDD, then each duplication tower in the daisy chain will start working simultaneously. They will follow the first tower’s instruction to start or to end the copying, however, the daisy chain duplication will not be affected by any interruption such as linkage broken, or power off, each tower can work independently to continue copying even without daisy chain linkage during the copying. Furthermore, when finished, each tower can continue the same source duplication by itself, no need to wait for other towers job finishing.

Q10 Can I copy 2G to 1G ?
     
 
As long as the data size is smaller than the target Flash and the data location does not exceed the target Flash.  
 
     
Q11 Can I copy 1G to 2G ?
     
  Yes. However, due to the UReach Flash duplicator is applying the technology of bit by bit copy, the FAT table of the source Flash media will also be copied to the target Flash media. Therefore, after copy, the 2G Flash media of target will be shown as 1G by PC. You will need to reformate the Flash media. Therefore, we strongly suggested to use the same capacity media for all the duplication task.  
     
 
 
Q1 What is the difference between Tower series and IT series ?
     
  Tower series is designed to apply with standard HDD enclosure supporting up to 7 targets. IT series has special platform design for heavy duplication manufacturers. It supports up to 15 targets.

There are 4 major differences between Tower and IT:

     

1. IT series supports auto power control. When copy stop, HDD interface's power will automatically shut down, it can guarantee not to damage HDD while plug and pull. Because Tower series use standard HDD enclosure which support hot swap which allow HDD to pull and plug while the power not yet completely off.
2. IT is a platform design which supports 2.5, 3.5" SATA HDD and IDE HDD via SATA-IDE converter. Tower series can only support3.5" SATA HDD, and 2.5 “HDD via 3.5” to 2.5” converters.
3. The SATA interface is consumables which may wear and tear after a period of time of usage. Tower series requires changing the enclosure by opening from the tower case. IT series will be easier by just switch the SATA connector module.
4. The highest speed support from real test result. IT series is about 100MB/sec, while Tower series is 90MB/sec.

 
     
Q2 Can I duplicate HDDs between source and target have different capacity ?
     
  Yes, you can copy HDDs with different capacity.  But you should be aware of the copy mode you do. If you do the quick data and system copy, duplicator will analyze if the data are located within the target capacity, it out of target capacity, it is not allowed to duplicate.  If are copying NTFS format, the capacity of target HDD must be at least 1MB bigger than the source.  
     
Q3 The HDD duplicated by data and system quick copy mode, does target can work as the same as source HDD ?
     
  Yes. The duplicator can bit by bit duplicate the source HDD even the quick copy. The quick copy will analyze the HDD first, and duplicate all system and file of the source.  
     
Q4 Can you support 3TB HDD duplication ?
     
  No. Not yet.  
     
Q5 Can I copy SSD HDD ?
     
  Yes. IT series can support to copy SSD HDD. Because you can easily plug the SSD with standard SATA interface to the module. However, you should be careful that there are many types of SATA SSD with difference size of connector interface. If your SSD is not standard normal type of SATA, you need the find a converter for it.  
     
Q6 Can I copy IDE HDD ?
     
  Yes. IT series can support to copy with a SATA-IDE converter. Please contact your distributor for purchasing the converter.  
     
Q7 Can I copy SAS HDD ?
     
  No. Not yet.  
     
Q8 Why copy fail ?
     
  There are few possible reasons might cause copy fail.  
 
1. First of all, please check if the data in the source HDD has exceeded the target HDD.
2. If you are copying NTFS, the capacity of target HDD must be at least 1MB bigger than the source HDD.
3. If the copy stop and fail during the copy process, please check if the there are too many bad track in target or source HDD. You might increase the toleration of bad sector by Function 6.2 Skip Error.
4. If you can’t find the reason, please record the operation process as detail as possible in order to help us to examine your issue. a. how do you operate the duplicator ? b. the model number and version c. the brand, capacity , data size , format and partition of both source and target HDD. d. what is the problem and how is the LCD shows with pictures attached will be helpful. Please download the support form from the website and we will help us as soon as possible.
 
     
Q9 Why copy slow ?
     
  There are few reasons will cause copy slow,                                                                                                                                                                          

     

1. The speed limitation of HDD , please check the HDD by PC.
2. Please check if you put HDD as 0 degree horizontal or 180 degree vertical. Due to the design of HDD itself, any dip will slow the speed of HDD reading or writing.  
3. If you are coping multi HDD at one time, please check if copy slow only happened on few fixed targets. It might because the connector module has damaged by usage. You might connect your local seller to change new connector module or mobile rack.
 
     
Q10 How can I make sure the accuracy of copy ?
     
  You can use Function 2. Compare to compare the source and target HDD bit by bit to ensure the data correctness.  
     
Q11 Where can I buy the mobile rack or module ?
     
  Please contact your local seller, or contact us , we will help you to find the closest seller for you.
