www.aleratec.com4 Introduction 1:8 Blu-ray/DVD/CD Tower Duplicator SA: Removable Hard Disk Drive Your Duplicator SA is equipped with a removable hard disk drive (HDD) for storing images of frequently copied discs. Storing an image of a disc you want to copy on an HDD improves duplication speed, and adds the convenience of not having to look around for the actual source disc you want to copy. Your removable HDD provides extra security, in that you can remove the drive containing the disc images and put it in a safe place where non-authorized users can copy or view the data. The removable HDD includes a keyed lock to protect the data on the drive from being misused or stolen. The HDD is used in the copy process as described in the following pages of this user guide. Note: You can use the duplicator to copy directly from BD, DVDs or CDs with or without the HDD. Just place your source disc in the BD/DVD/CD source drive or any of the BD/DVDRW writers. To remove the HDD: 1. Unlock the HDD by inserting the key and turning it left (counterclockwise) 1/4 turn. The drive is now in the unlocked position. 2. Lift the HDD carriage lever upward and pull out. The HDD carriage will come out of the tower and a protective drive bay door will close. To replace the HDD: 1. Align the HDD carriage with the door opening and push the drive carriage through the protective drive bay door until you feel the drive seat in its connector. 2. Push the HDD carriage lever down, then insert your key and turn it 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise). The HDD is now in its locked position. You can remove the key. Note: The HDD will not work unless it is secured in position with the carriage lever and locked with the key. Do not unlock the HDD during operation, as you will destroy any copies you are making.
