4-Target NVMe Duplicator - Getting To Know Your Duplicator

Updated on Feb 25, 2026

Hardware Setup

  1. Place the KanguruClone where there is proper ventilation. Avoid using the KanguruClone in environments with high temperatures.
  2. Make sure that sufficient power is supplied to the KanguruClone. Incorrect power will cause faulty operation. It is highly recommended that you use a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) with the KanguruClone.
  3. You are now ready to begin using your KanguruClone. To begin, turn on the unit by flipping the power switch located on the back panel and pressing the Power On button on the front of the duplicator.

 

Things to remember

  • Make sure that sufficient power is supplied to the KanguruClone. Incorrect power will cause faulty operation. It is highly recommended that you use a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) with the KanguruClone.
  • The KanguruClone is powered by an internal power adapter that is controlled by a rocker switch located at the rear of the duplicator.
  • KanguruClone M.2 NVMe Duplicators support PCIe M.2 SSDs, commonly known as NVMe SSDs, as well as SATA M.2 SSDs.
  • The KanguruClone supplies power to all drives during a session. There is no need to connect an external power source to the drives. Note: the drives are not powered until you start a copy operation.
  • It is OK to connect and disconnect Source or Target drives while the KanguruClone is powered on. However, do NOT connect or disconnect drives while any operation is running or is in progress. The green LED light will blink to indicate that the unit is cloning or operating.
  • Connect all Source and Target drives before you execute an operation.
