Compact Flash Duplicator Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions Is there any limitation for copy file format? You can use SMART Copy Mode to copy FAT16/32 and Linux (ext3) formatted flash drives. This mode will only copy the data, and therefore the time to copy your master will be shorter. For other formats, RAW Copy Mode will be used to copy the whole Flash master automatically if you have the duplicator set in SMART Copy Mode.
