I do know of a program which allows you to copy HARD DRIVE TO HARD DRIVE.
This is part of Tecmar's QT software which comes with their tape backup
unit.

With this piece of software you can copy one HARD DRIVE to ANOTHER.
The target drive must have equal or more space then the source.
The program automatically remaps data from bad sectors on the target drive
onto an unused good sector.  The program makes an identical copy ... all
the file protection bits are preserved and hidden files are also copied.

Once again, this piece of software comes with Tecmar's tape backup units and
I believe that they will sell it seperate from the unit upon request.

The syntax for this program is:   QT mcopy C: D:
where C: is the source drive
and D: is the target drive.

I hope this info is helpful.  If you come across any other such programs,
please let me know (and post it too).  Thanks.
