Definition: A duplication mode that adds files to existing data on flash memory devices without overwriting the entire content.
Explanation
Copy Add is a duplication method used in memory duplication workflows where new files are added to the existing data on the target memory device. Unlike full device copy modes that overwrite all data, Copy Add preserves the original content and appends additional files, enabling incremental updates or additions to the media.
Example
For example, if a USB drive or SD card already contains a base software package, Copy Add can be used to add new application files or updates without erasing the existing software, maintaining the original data while expanding the card’s content.
Who This Is For
This mode is ideal for IT administrators, media production teams, and enterprise operators who need to update or augment SD card content efficiently without performing a full duplication process.
