This program is designed to write a raw disk image to a removable device or backup a removable device to a raw image file. It is very useful for embedded development, namely Arm development projects (Android, Ubuntu on Arm, etc). Anyone is free to branch and modify this program. Patches are always welcome.

This release is for Windows 7/8.1/10. It will should also work on Windows Server 2008/2012/2016 (although not tested by the developmers). For Windows XP/Vista, please use v0.9 (in the files archive).

Warning: Issues have been reported when using to write to USB Floppy drives (and occasionally other USB devices, although very rare). While this has been fixed in v1.0, it is highly recommended that before an image is written to a device, the user should do a Read to a temporary file first. If this fails, please report the failure along with your system information.

Known issues:
Currently, the program will crash if you are using a Ramdisk. This is being debugged.

User Reviews

  • it would be great if it could also work with partitions

  • Using Win10-2004, works great and fast! Thanks so much for creating this tool! btw - for folks having issues on Win10, try setting resolution to 1080p. High res DPI screens can mess up older GUIs that use pixel sizing.

  • Works perfect with Windows 10 64 bits 1909

  • I am running windows 10 and it worked fine for me. No so user friendly but figured it out and cloned my R pi SD card OK. note 2G source card only creates 2G part even if card is bigger, like 4Gb but hey 2Gb enough for me anyway.

  • Now the functionality seems to be completely gone with Win10 Update 2004, and the last version is from 2018. don't hope that it will work ever again. Better replacement that is also able to read AND write: "HDD Raw Copy Tool"
