Begin and track the data transfer process.
The Copy data popup (fig. 1) appears at the beginning of the data transfer. Some program functions will show a security query before starting. In this case, check the status panel to ensure that program function, source, target and options are set. If needed, go back with Back in the lower left corner to adjust the settings. Click Start to begin the copying process.

The status displays are located to both sides of the control panel. They show information on the latest status of the copying process.
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Sectors processed | Absolute number of already copied sectors. |
| Read errors | Number of read errors encountered. This number may decrease when errors are resolved. |
| Write errors | Number of write errors encountered. This number may decrease when errors are resolved. |
| Verification errors | This display is only utilized when the Verifying option is selected. |
| Run time | Time elapsed since the start of the copying process. |
| Time remaining | Estimated time remaining for the entire copying process. |
| Data rate | Average data rate attained so far. |
| Buffer size | Size of the internally used buffer. |
The percentage indicator (fig. 1) is located below the copy animation. It shows the progress of the latest run in a percentage.
The progress bar (fig. 1) displays the status of the current operation. The progress status is shown in the bar itself in percent (%). The step of the process that is actively ongoing is shown to the left side above the progress bar. For operations where lengthy run times are expected, the process rate is shown in MB/s along with the estimated time of accomplishment (ETA) to the right side above the progress bar.
The entire process consists of up to three runs:
You can use Stop to interrupt the process (fig. 2). You may then either continue the process or cancel it completely, in which case you will receive a Final report.

After up to three runs, the copying process is terminated normally. A Final report for the complete copying process will show up in a pop-up window.
