Purpose

Copies the entire contents of one disk to another.

Syntax

DISKCOPY <drive1:> <drive2:> [/option]

Remarks

The first drive specifies the source disk, and the second drive specifies
the target disk.

Disks that may be copied are 360KB, 720KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB
disks. Both the source disk and the target disk must be of the same
type. If the target disk is not correctly formatted, it is reformatted
before copying.

If any problem occurs during the copy process, DISKCOPY indicates
the side, track, and sector where the problem occurred.

The source or the target disk may not be a RAM or virtual disk.

DISKCOPY only copies floppy disks; hard disks are not copied.

Options

/V verifies the copy after completion.

Examples

DISKCOPY a: b:

Makes a duplicate of the contents of the disk in drive A onto drive B.
Drive B must support the same type of disk as drive A.
