(front/top view)
The USB400PC Technical Datasheet provides detailed engineering specifications, system behavior, and operational characteristics for the Nexcopy USB400PC PC-based duplication platform. This page is intended for technical evaluators, IT professionals, and organizations that require deeper visibility into how the system functions beyond what is covered on the product overview page.
This page documents engineering-level characteristics. For pricing, availability, and overview details, see the USB400PC product page.
System Overview
The USB400PC is a host-managed platform designed for controlled, repeatable production workflows. The system operates using a Windows-based application to manage connected target devices, enforce copy operations, and apply device-level behaviors such as partition configuration and write protection where supported by media.

Media & Compatibility
The USB400PC operates using standard USB Mass Storage Class (MSC) protocols rather than controller-level configuration. As a result, it is compatible with virtually all USB flash drives that enumerate as standard USB storage devices.
- Supported media
- Compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 flash drives that enumerate as standard mass-storage devices
- Controller restrictions
- None for standard duplication workflows
- Media sourcing
- Customers may use their own USB flash drives from any manufacturer
- Advanced media features
- Controller-level features such as hardware write protection, partition control, and descriptor programming require PRO Series configuration and supported media
- Upgrade path
- The USB400PC can be software-configured to operate as two independent USB200PRO systems
Copy Methods & Data Workflows
- File copy
- Standard file-level duplication from host system to connected USB targets
- Full device copy
- Bit-for-bit device-level duplication, including file system structures and boot sectors
- Short device copy

- IMG file creation
- Generate device image files that capture boot code, partition structures, file systems, and data
- IMG file copy
- Write USB-specific image files (.IMG) to target devices
- File copy add
- Append new files to existing content on target devices
- Unique Data Streaming
- Supports individualized data per target device during a single production job
- Extract files from USB media
- Read and copy files from connected USB devices to host system storage
