Troubleshooting and Frequently 
Asked Questions 

 

Is there any limitation for copy file format? 

You can use "Only Data Area" to copy FAT16/32, NTFS, Linux (ext3) format, it will only copy 
the data, and therefore the copy speed will be quicker. 
If you want to copy other formats, it can use "Whole Area" to copy whole Flash; the format of 
the flash will not be a considered. 
 

How do I know the data is a true copy of the master? 

The duplicator has CRC check capability and the ability to compare the copies to the master. 
 

Why would the copied data fail during the compare when the data is 
present on the copy?   

The Flash chip maybe unstable, which may cause the duplication to pass but for the compare 
to fail.  
 

What should I do if I encounter a copy failure? 

The issues may be either your source or your blank cards. 

  Make sure the source content size is not greater than the target content size. Use the 

SD/USB/CF Info

 function to check the source/target flash content size and data size. 

  Use a PC to double check the source data.   

  If the Flash chip onto which you are copying the data is unstable, it will effect the copy 

process.  Use the 

Media Check

 function to verify the card’s stability. 

 

Why does the copy speed seem slow? 

The USB duplicator can reach 35MB/sec,but if you find the copy speed is slow it may be the 
flash quality that is effecting the speed of the copy. You can use the Measure Speed function 
to test the Flash real speed.
