MICROSD CARD DUPLICATOR – MSD160PC

A Professional microSD Duplication Platform for Validation-Driven Workflows

The mSD160PC is a PC-based microSD duplication system designed for organizations that require accuracy, validation, and process control rather than simple push-button duplication. It is commonly used in environments where microSD cards are part of a broader product workflow and must be prepared, verified, and managed with precision.

Unlike standalone duplicators that prioritize speed and simplicity, the mSD160PC operates through a Windows workstation using Nexcopy software. This provides operators with visibility into each job, access to multiple copy methods, logging capabilities, and verification tools that support structured production requirements.

The mSD160PC is particularly well suited for workflows that involve inspection, data collection, validation, and controlled preparation of microSD media prior to deployment.

When the mSD160PC Is the Right Choice

The mSD160PC is selected when organizations need more than high-speed duplication and instead require operational transparency and control during the duplication process.

It is commonly used by teams that must verify data accuracy, capture card metadata such as CID information, manage repeatable preparation workflows, or integrate duplication into a larger quality-controlled production pipeline.

Environments such as embedded systems development, hardware validation labs, manufacturing test lines, and field deployment teams often rely on the mSD160PC because it supports deliberate, inspectable workflows rather than opaque automation.

Why the mSD160PC Uses a PC-Based Architecture

The mSD160PC operates through a PC-connected workflow to provide transparency and control during production. By running through a Windows workstation, operators can configure jobs, monitor activity, and validate results using Nexcopy software rather than relying on blind push-button execution.

This architecture supports practical production functions such as job logging, checksum verification, multiple copy methods, and image-based workflows, which are not available on basic standalone duplicators designed only for speed.

The PC-based model also enables advanced card-level operations, including access to CID values for inspection and traceability, and—when supported by the media controller—the ability to program CID values or enforce hardware write protection as part of controlled preparation workflows.

Production Duplication Without Altering Card Behavior

The mSD160PC performs duplication at the file system and device level, supporting both standard media preparation and controller-level configuration where required. When used with supported microSD controller types, the system can apply operations such as CID programming and hardware write protection as part of controlled production workflows.

This approach is well suited for workflows where cards must remain writable, reusable, and broadly compatible after deployment while still providing confidence that prepared media matches the intended source.

Copy Methods and Production Workflows

The mSD160PC supports six copy methods, giving teams flexibility in how content is sourced and written rather than forcing every job into a single duplication model.

• File Copy – copy files and folders only
• Full Device Copy – bit-for-bit duplication
• Smart Device Copy – intelligent copy excluding empty sectors
• IMG Copy – write from pre-built image file
• Copy Add – append files to existing content
• Unique Data Streaming – individualized data per device

Unique Data Streaming allows different data to be written to each microSD card during a single job. This is commonly used for serial numbers, license files, certificates, identifiers, configuration files, or device-specific assets.

The mSD160PC also supports read-back workflows, allowing data to be extracted from connected microSD cards and saved to host storage, with optional post-processing actions such as secure erase or formatting to support controlled media reuse.
