Can I use this to copy data from the source drive to the destination computer...or can I only image the source drive through this device?

This device must be used with a host computer. The suspect drive will be connected to the device and the T8u itself will be hooked to a computer via USB 3. The image will need to be stored on a drive that is attached to the computer.

Will this device work properly when plugged into a usb 2.0 port on a pc?

Yes, a Tableau TK8U will work on a USB 2.0 Port but it will be slower.

Can I recover dead drive with this? if not what do you recommend?

No, the Tableau TK8U does not recover data from a dead drive.

What is the difference between the duplicator,block-writer and the bridge , is it a must to have all 3 in order to copy/image a hard drive ?

The Forensic Duplicators from Tableau such as the Tableau TX1, TD2u, and TD3 are stand-alone devices that can write-protect and image/clone a drive without any host side device such as a laptop/computer. The Forensic Bridges such as the T8u require use of a laptop/desktop and imaging software to make an image of a suspect drive. All Bridges/duplicators from Tableau are write-protected on the suspect/source side unless otherwise specified.
