Atola Bandura

Product information

Bandura is a brand-new standalone 2-port disk duplication and diagnosis tool. Bandura allows fast disk duplication, automatic checkup, comparison, and secure data erasure. It does not require a PC; the only thing it needs is a 100–240V AC power socket.

Bandura can work with damaged disk drives and handles bad sectors properly. The tool features an intuitive touch screen user interface that allows launching any task in just 2 touches.
