If the source USB stick has multiple partitions, will it clone it properly or will it clone the first partition only ?

From my understanding, this is a bit-to-bit duplicator. I would guess, yes it would duplicate exactly. Maybe this is a question for the manufacturer.

It should not matter what is on the drive. It will copy what is there. Keep in mind you need to copy to a drive of the same size or larger but larger you lose the extra space.

Yes, it essentially turns the new drive into the old one. I did this on a Acer netbook and it worked fine after swapping to the cloned drive.

Yes and you will have to set the pins with a jumper for recognition of a second drive and plug it into the IDE cable as the second, you might have to unplug something. then copy the drive *.* and you've duplicated it.

Hi, I'm not 100% certain but if I remember correctly I did use it as a clone at one point to backup OS10.8.6 before upgrading to 10.9 Mavericks and did boot from this Seagate via Thunderbolt. I hope I'm not misleading you though because there were a lot of other external drives floating around this same time, but quite sure.

sometimes, i buy 3 SSD kingston, but not all the software allow me to manage the partitions to be clone at will.I will say 60% of the time works fine.

No, you need to remove it and put it in the 'source' bay. You then need a drive at least as large as the original for the 'target' bay. If the 'target' drive is larger, you can tack on the additional space after you clone it, install it and boot into the OS (i.e. using disk management on Windows computers).

I've used up to 128GB stick with no issues. USB 2.0 is recommended but it works with my USB 3.0. I'd recommend USB 3.0 due to faster copying times to your thumb drive during Rekordbox preperation.

Yes, if you reformat the USB drive, you will lose all data on that drive. Copy the data from the USB drive to the hard disk, or to another USB drive. After the data is safely copied to another drive, you can reformat the Kingston. After reformatting the Kingston, you can copy your saved data back to the reformatted USB drive.

When I duplicated my drives, I didnt use any software. You can duplicate drives without plugging the dock into a computer, instead running it as a stand-alone unit. The larger drive's partition didnt automatically expand, instead it showed the smaller drive's size. I used a free partition manager program to "fix" the partition.

Francis, this is a total yes. Are you on a split partition on one hard drive? Does not matter. The kit clones the C drive only. All settings will remain. After you clone the partition. You will reap the benefits of a ssd with minimal difficulties.

Yes it will. Copying from a smaller drive to a larger always works. It's the other way around that it will not. To clone a larger to a smaller drive you would need to use software like Paragon which will allow you to not copy certain files.

Cloning only works if the usb is disconnected. Thus now while in use with a PC.

Yes this will work all u have to do is a restore. If that doesn't work just save all data on usb drive. Then transfer data. That's what I had to do because I had 1 corrupt file so it wouldn't restore but saving on the usb worked

what? will size of partitions? As long as the destination drive is the same size or larger than the original drive, you're good to go. If that's what you're asking.

No, it is a bare drive. I used a usb2IDE appliance and Clonezilla, a free OpenSource download.

Actually it depends on which filesystem you use. The USB stick came formatted in the FAT32 file system which, from what I can tell from online searching, is limited to individual files of 4 GB in size. If you format it to NTFS is should be able to hold much larger files, but not all devices may be able to read the stick.
