It functions at a very low level directly interacting with the disk drive hardware to override a copy protection scheme that the floppy disk's data may be stored in. In most cases the nibbler software still analyses the data on ...
HDCopy is a disk image application for floppy disks that runs in MS-DOS.It can copy a floppy on the fly, or by using archives with IMG file extension that store the content of the disk with a proprietary file format (whose first three bytes noted in hexadecimal will be FF 18, and its size will be anything [clarify]).
Rob Northen Copylock (also known simply as Copylock) is a copy-protection system designed to prevent disk duplication with standard floppy disk drives on the Amiga, Atari ST, and IBM PC compatibles.
