Multi-Destination Copy enables you to choose multiple, simultaneous copy destinations so you can create maximal redundancy and file security. A read-once write-twice mechanism, you can 2x your copy time when making multiple copies with GNARBOX 2.0 SSD. This copy functionality is similar to what you’d only be able to find in premium software programs such as Hedge or Shotput Pro.

To perform a multi-destination backup using the On-Board Backup system, follow these steps:

1. Connect your external drive to the GNARBOX. You may need to back out of the Back up Now prompt by pressing the Right button. 
2. Insert an SD card into the GNARBOX or connect a card reader via one of the USB-C ports.
3. Backup options are immediately prompted when the memory card is connected. You can also press the right button to initiate the backup prompt from the home screen.
4. Toggle down to Advanced and press the Right button.
5. Choose Multi and press the Right button.
6. Your connected destinations will display.  Using the on-board buttons, toggle down through your desired destinations using the Right button.
7. Toggle down to Continue and press the Right button.
8. Toggle to your desired Folder Preset (or use the default) and press the Right button.
9. The screen will indicate that a backup is in progress.
10. Once the transfer is complete, you’ll be prompted with a series of options to move forward with.
