Hi, I wanted to know, is it possible to copy sector by sector instead of file copy in VB? Is there certain windows function for that? Please help

With code... no as I have destroyed my fair share of hard drives and that I have never tried this method before but I can say that when you read from the disk, your buffer size needs to be the size of the sector. I think this is one of those things that I think you will have to do yourself by trial and error.

 

Good Luck
