Standalone 1:2 USB 2.0 duplicator

The StarTech USBDUP12 is a compact black unit that copies or securely erases two USB flash drives at once without a host computer. It supports USB 3.0 2.0 and 1.1 drives and operates through an LCD display with four shortcut keys. The duplicator handles asynchronous and synchronous duplication as well as system file or whole drive modes. TAA compliant design suits government and institutional procurement.

Compatibility check before ordering

Verify that each target drive uses a standard USB Type-A connector and does not exceed the physical slot spacing of 4.7 by 5.1 inches. The unit accepts USB 3.0 2.0 and 1.1 flash drives but cannot duplicate drives requiring proprietary cables or external power adapters. Ensure the source drive contains no hardware write protection that would block duplication or erasure.

Sustained load behaviour

Continuous duplication runs at up to 1.5 GB per minute across both target ports simultaneously. The standalone architecture maintains this throughput without host CPU contention or software overhead. Multiple erase modes execute sequentially on each drive meeting global secure erasure requirements during extended sessions. The lightweight enclosure remains stable during prolonged operation.

Questions about this item

Does the USBDUP12 come with any USB flash drives or cables, or must I supply them separately?

The duplicator is a standalone unit that accepts your own USB flash drives; no drives or extra cables are included in the box.

Should I choose the 1:2 model or a higher-port version for my workflow?

The USBDUP12 duplicates two drives at once; if you need to copy more than two simultaneously, a model with additional target ports would be required.

What does the 1.5 GB per minute copy speed mean when I am duplicating two drives at the same time?

Each target port can write up to 1.5 GB per minute, so both drives receive that rate concurrently during synchronous duplication.
