HDD Raw Copy speed limit

[depaul9999]

Hi. HDD Raw Copy tool is excellent for cloning encrypted HDDs/SSDs, I used it to clone my PS3/PS4 HDDs to SSD.

However, I noticed there is a speed limit around 50 MB/s. No matter what settings (without compression, SSD to SSD,...). The speed always is always about 50 MB/s (but I can copy files between my SSDs at 300 MB/s).

Is there anything wrong? Can members please confirm if speed is limited?

Thanks.

There are a lot of things that can limit your transfer speed.

Unfortunately you did not specify the physical chain of devices from source to target including mainboard, connectors, interface cards and others.
Therefore your statement includes as much information as when you said "My computer is broken!"

FWIW, the HDD LLF Low Level Format Tool has a documented speed limit of 50MB/s for the free version ...

Thank you very much. It explains the speed cap. Of course I will consider getting a license. it's an excellent tool and the only windows tool that can clone PS3/4 HDDs perfectly.

Indeed Raw Copy tool has implemented a license check, although it doesn't show you the license window.

I don't quite get it but it looks like the author of this software is long gone. pity
