|  Re: Best method to image disks
Hi,
For disk-to-disk copy have a look at Utility/Copy.
Copying from real disk to computer I'd recommend a 1541 and an XU or XUM adapter (like ZoomFloppy) with CBM-Transfer on Windows/Linux.
Copying disk images to SD2IEC is also a good solution.
If you select all files it can work if the disk is real standard DOS floppy disk, storing files. Programs with custom loaders (most full-disk games and demos) should be copied as disk images because they do not store their data in standard files.
Unfortunately the BASIC COPY command with logical drives can be used to copy between units of a dual disk drive (drives that use a single device number and two logical drives in that). I'm not aware any of them that could be connected to the plus/4 easily.
