View Full Version : Does SD clone the directory?

If I'm copying using SD 2.0.1, does a new directory get created on the destination? Or does the directory from the source come over and get updated?

I've got a disk with a problem directory (DiskWarrior fails to rebuild it), but the copy from source to dest seems to go OK, but I was wondering if there were some gotchas that I need to be aware of prior to erasing the source (and thus clearing out the directory).

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon

We never work at a low level, and would copy, file by file, from source to destination. So, it's a "new" directory, in the sense that we create each file as we encounter it, and it's independent from the source.

Does that help?
