I need to clone about 1>100usb drives. Is there any tool or way to clone a few at a time. Thank you

  • I see you got down voted for this, it might be better in future if you put in your question the research you've carried out prior to asking along with the solutions you've tried that haven't worked. You should also always put in your OS. – sgtbeano Nov 11 '13 at 09:38
  • The tool that you want is called a [USB Duplicator](http://www.aleratec.com/usb-duplicator.html). There are many vendors -- ask Google for more. If you want to do this on the cheap, [Lawrence's advice](http://serverfault.com/a/554078/32986) plus a bunch of USB hubs plugged in to a cheap Linux box will also do the trick. – voretaq7 Nov 11 '13 at 17:37

You need to clone 1 use to many other USB sticks ?
I would use dd on linux for that.
Create the image from the USB stick onto your hard drive
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/tmp/usb.img bs=1M
And then once that is finished, you can then plug in the USB sticks and clone from the image
dd if=/tmp/usb.img of=/dev/sdb
dd if=/tmp/usb.img of=/dev/sdc
dd if=/tmp/usb.img of=/dev/sdd
dd if=/tmp/usb.img of=/dev/sde

etc.
