HDD Duplicators?

[Fast Drive]

I need to purchase a HDD duplicator for my company. We build a few systems over and over again, and it would just save a lot of time to duplicate the drive rather than sit here and do installs. All the hardware/software is exactly the same.

Anyone use one and can make any recommendations on brand? model?

Need something that can do around 10 drives at a time.

Thanks

Only ads I've seen are in the back of mags like PC Mag/World or Maximum PC, and are somewhat shady lookin'. I assume google would be a good place to start.

Ghost multicast is your friend.. Also no matter how you image the drives, be sure to do a SID change/walk otherwise they will not play together well on a network.

Best bet. Set up a multicast from a few (3 or more) servers on a Gb link, and make some batch boot disks that only ask for the IP address of the multicast server. Load up each server with 4 or 5 PCs, and then start on a new one. You could potentially have 15 machines ghosting at exactly the same time.
