what do you guys use to make sure something continues copying irrespective of whether the drive disconnects (hot, etc) or hits a file that denies you permission -- etc ... ?
Preferably OS X
Obviously Windows
Also, Ubuntu as well.

Anyone know of one thats reasonable? I have dedicated units - but i want one that just protects a source drive. even software: identify it with the last 6 digits of the sn, and the sw blocks all accidental write attempts until you disable it for that device ... like a safety. i know the second idea would never exist, but what about the first? I tried: Manufacture: Wiebetech Model: Forensic UltraDock v5.5 It's caca. seemed like you could write to the disk, even with it on. stupid rapey waste of money. p.o.s. company. https://www.cru-inc.com/products/wiebet ... dock-v5-5/ |

DeepSpar is releasing one shortly that is very impressive, based on the tests I've done thus far. |

I've got a couple of these that I occasionally use when I'm just connecting a known healthy drive and I don't want to take any chance that the system will try to mount it: https://www.amazon.com/Coolgear-SATA-Ad ... 005C55OYA/ But, obviously, you're limited over USB. I've also got a Tableau SATA write blocker bay in a forensic acquisition server I picked up on eBay, but I wouldn't call that "affordable" if you were to try to buy one new. I was just lucky that the seller didn't even know what they had there. |

Are you referring to file level copying or sector-by-sector imaging? |
