Designed exclusively for Forensic applications, the ImageMASSter Solo-3 Forensic is a light weight, portable, hand-held, high speed data acquisition device. It offers an optional hard carrying case and the FAST SCSI option, and optional SCSI to SATA and SCSI to PATA converters.

The ImageMASSter Solo-3 Forensic supports seizing data from IDE, SATA and SCSI hard disk drives, including ATA-compatible solid state devices.

A suspect’s data can be seized at speeds exceeding 3GB/Min.

The ImageMASSter Solo-3 Forensic is a complete high speed data duplication tool that integrates all the latest advanced features in data imaging. It is capable of copying data from IDE and laptop drives, Serial ATA and SCSI drives as well as Flash Cards. With the integrated Link MASSter Option, data can be copied from unopened computers using the FireWire or USB2 interface. The source's hard drive is write protected and you can copy data to 2 targets hard drives simultaneously.

Copied data can be verified to achieve maximum reliability. On the fly MD5 or CRC32 hashing capabilities are available using the sector-by-sector copy mode to guarantee an exact replica of the source's data without modification, re-arrangement or corruption. The byte-by-byte verification functionality is available when using the Intelligent Copy mode, which copies only allocated files. The source's copied data can be transferred using the unit’s direct drive-to-drive interface or using the unit’s external Firewire/USB interface to copy data from a source's unopened computer.

The ImageMASSter Solo-3 Forensic duplicator supports IDE, SATA and SCSI hard disk drives, including ATA Flash devices. The unit’s advanced touch-screen user interface provides ease of use. The ImageMASSter Solo-3 Forensic can copy data to two hard drives simultaneously without any speed reduction.

We recommend purchasing the optional Single Drive EMI Shield Cooler Fan for use with the ImageMASSter Solo 3 Forensic. The Hard Drive EMI Shield Cooler accessory protects the hard drive from EMI noise while you clone hard drives and reduces hard drive overheating. The IM SOLO 3 Forensics Kit includes the SOLO 3, Fast SCSI option, two SCSI Converters (SATA & IDE) and the Customized Hard Case at a total cost of $3,995.00.

Features

MD5 and CRC32 Hashing: Simultaneous MD5 and CRC32 hashing can be performed during the data copy opration. Note: Hashing is supported using the sector-by-sector copy mode only.
Touch Screen User Interface: The unit’s advanced Touch Screen user interface and programmed keyboard provides ease of use.
High Speed Operation: Data copied at transfer rates that exceed 3GB/min.
Built in Write Protection: Source's data is protected with built-in write protection.
Built in FireWire 1384B and USB 2.0 Interface: Copy data from a Source's unopened Notebook or PC. Also, safely preview the Source's drive while connected to the ImageMASSter Solo-3's write-protected port.
Copy to Two Target Drives Simultaneously: Copy data to two hard drives simultaneously at high speeds, without speed reduction.
Multiple Copy Methods: Copy data using a sector-by-sector copy mode or using Intelligent Copy mode, which copies only allocated files.
WipeOut: Sanitize drives and erase data at speeds greater than 3GB/min.
Multiple Media Support: Supports data transfer between PATA, SATA and SCSI hard disk drives. Note: SCSI drives are supported with optional hardware. Also supports imaging data from flash media devices and Notebook drives.
Upgradable: Software and Firmware upgrades performed using a supplied Compact Flash Card.
Multiple Capture Methods: Seize in a Forensic sector-by-sector format method or using a segmented file format method (Linux-DD) which allows seizing multiple images to one Evidence drive.
Audit Trail and Logs: Detail operational event log information can be printed or saved to Compact Flash.

* Hashing can be performed with MD5, SHA-1 or SHA-2 but not all together at the same time.

Software (Standard)  

Device Configuration Overlay (DCO) Option: DCO can be used to hide and protect a portion of the drive’s area from the operating system and file system.  If DCO is detected on a Source's drive, the IM Solo-3 IT's copy operation will copy the DCO hidden sectors.
Host Protected Area (HPA) Option: An HPA area may exist on a drive, hiding a certain portion of the drive’s contents from the operating system and file system.  If an HPA area exists on a Source's drive, the IM Solo-3 IT's copy operation will detect and copy data from the HPA area.
WipeOut DoD Option: WipeOut was designed to meet the U.S. Department of Defense specification DOD 5220-22M regarding the sanitization of hard disk drive data.  Three iterations are performed to completely erase data and the contents of a hard disk drive.  Each iteration makes two write passes over the entire drive.
WipeOut Fast Option: The WipeOut Fast option provides a quick non-DoD method of sanitizing a drive of all previously stored data.
LinkMASSter Application: The LinkMASSter application, combined with the unit’s built-in FireWire/USB interface, provides a fast and effective solution to acquire data from a Source's unopened PC or Notebook to a Target's drive connected on the IM Solo-3 IT unit.
Linux-DD Capture Option: The LinuxDD Capture option captures data as individual “LinuxDD” segmented files.  This option also allows multiple seizures to be performed using the same Evidence drive. 

Optional Software

Solo 3 Forensic Mac Option: the software allows the user to copy unopened Macintosh computers, sector bysector, with the highest standards of verifications - MD5/SHA-1/SHA-2.

Optional Hardware

Fast SCSI Option (factory installed at time of purchase of Solo 3-cost $1,300.00): Allows you to capture directly from one SCSI drive to another SCSI drive at transfer rates exceeding 4GB per minute. Optional Adapters will also allow capture from SCSI to P-ATA or S-ATA drives.
Fast SCSI Option (purchased as upgrade after delivery of Solo 3-cost $1,450.00): Allows you to capture directly from one SCSI drive to another SCSI drive at transfer rates exceeding 4GB per minute. Optional Adapters will also allow capture from SCSI to P-ATA or S-ATA drives.
