Summary:Diversi-COPY backs-up 3.5 disks on 1 drive

Keywords:backup


Diversi-COPY (written by Bill Basham), copyright by DSR, Inc., backs 
up 3.5 in disks on a single drive. The number of passes depends upon 
the amount of RAM. If you have at least 800K, it's one pass, and 
can also make multiple copies if you wish. Does the same for 5.25
in disks (but doesn't need much RAM, of course). Works on ][+, e, c,
gs. Diversified Software Research, Inc., 34880 Bunker Hill, Farmington
MI 48018-2728 sells it for $30. May work on Laser 128; never tried it.

Alternatively, to back up 3.5 in on 5.25 in, one can format a 5.25 in, 
and then use a copy utility (e.g., System Utility, CAT Doctor on ProSEL, 
etc.) to copy desired files to the 5.25 in.
