4.11 CMD Time out
CMD Time Out allows you to set the number of commands the duplicator will send to a non-responsive
drive. If the duplicator experiences any issues when attempting to communicate with an attached
drive, the duplicator can send 1 to 9 unreturned ATA commands to the drive before it errors out.
4.12 Tran Size
TRAN. SIZE setting allows you define the data transfer block size for each ATA command. Generally,
larger transfer block sizes are better for duplication purposes than smaller sizes. However, there are
some hard drives which can only accept 2MB data transfer size per ATA command. If your drives
only support small data transfer block sizes, then you will need to change this setting.
The Transfer Size settings can be set to 128KB, 256KB, 512KB, 1MB, 2MB, 4MB, 8MB and 16MB.
The default value is set to the largest available option for your model.
