Note Express Copy is a commercial product sold by ExpressWay Software based
here in Columbia, MO.  While I don't have the program or a hard drive, I
do know that ExpressWay gives good support.  Supra offers a version of
Express Copy with its hard drives.  Finally, I know the programmer of
Express Copy, and he's a nice guy.  :-)

BTW: the latest version of Express Copy works with 2.0 and the 3000.
