Insert SSDs: Place the source SSD into the 'Source' slot and the target SSD into the 'Target' slot.
Power On: Connect the power adapter and turn on the enclosure.
Initiate Clone: Press and hold the 'Clone' button for 3 seconds until all LED indicators light up. Release the button, then press it again immediately to start the cloning process.
Monitor Progress: The blue LED indicators (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) will illuminate sequentially to show the cloning progress. When the 100% indicator is solid, the cloning is complete.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Red Constant Light on Indicator	SSD not recognized or damaged. Unsupported M.2 SATA drive inserted. Target SSD capacity is less than Source SSD capacity during cloning.	Ensure SSDs are properly seated. Verify SSDs are NVMe M.2 (not SATA or AHCI). For cloning, ensure Target SSD capacity is ≥ Source SSD capacity.
Slow Data Transfer Speeds	Connected to a lower speed USB port (e.g., USB 3.0 instead of USB4). Cable issue.	Connect to a USB4 or USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 port on your computer. Try a different high-quality USB-C cable.
Enclosure Not Detected by Computer	Loose cable connection. Power not supplied. Driver issue (rare for plug-and-play).	Ensure all cables are securely connected. Verify the power adapter is plugged in and the enclosure is powered on. Try a different USB port or computer.
