MultiCopy
With MultiCopy (mass copy), the contents of the source (disk or image) are copied onto multiple targets at one time. This results in a time and performance advantage due to the source data only having to be read once and the data being written onto multiple targets at one time.
When selecting a program function from the MultiCopy group, the target selection page will allow the selection of multiple targets from the list. The subsequent process will work just as copying to a single disk would.
| Note: When creating a MultiCopy, the result on a single media will be identical to the result of a single copy. Even the values for automatic re-sizing will be calculated individually for each target. |
The use of MultiCopy yields a notably strong advantage in speed when compared to single copies. With optimal connected media, the speed increases in direct proportion with the number of target media. For example, a fourfold copy will yield about four times the data throughput of a single copy.
| Note: Please note that the achievable speed depends on the hardware used (optimally SATA, USB3, IDE, or SAS/SCSI), as well as on the maximum speed of the individual disks. |
MultiCopy can be used with any combination of drive types, yet performance variations of different media types may impact the total speed. The use of IDE drives, configured as master only, is recommended.
