HDD Raw Copy Tool is a utility for low-level, sector-by-sector hard disk duplication and image creation.
  • Supported interfaces: S-ATA (SATA), IDE (E-IDE), SCSI, SAS, USB, FIREWIRE.
  • Big drives (LBA-48) are supported.
  • Supported HDD/SSD Manufacturers: Intel, OCZ, Samsung, Kingston, Maxtor, Hitachi, Seagate, Samsung, Toshiba, Fujitsu, IBM, Quantum, Western Digital, and almost any other not listed here.
  • The program also supports low-level duplication of FLASH cards (SD/MMC, MemoryStick, CompactFlash, SmartMedia, XD) using a card-reader.
HDD Raw Copy tool makes an exact duplicate of a SATA, IDE, SAS, SCSI or SSD hard disk drive. Will also work with any USB and FIREWIRE external drive enclosures as well as SD, MMC, MemoryStick and CompactFlash media.

The tool creates a sector-by-sector copy of all areas of the hard drive (MBR, boot records, all partitions as well as space in between). HDD Raw Copy does not care about the operating system on the drive – it could be Windows, Linux, Mac, or any other OS with any number of partitions (including hidden ones). Bad sectors are skipped by the tool.

If your media has a supported interface then it can be copied with HDD Raw Copy!

In addition, HDD Raw Copy can create an exact raw (dd) or compressed image of the entire media (including service data such as MBR, Boot records, etc). Again, all filesystems (even hidden) are supported.

Examples of possible uses
  • Data recovery: make a copy of the damaged drive to attempt recovery on the copy
  • Data recovery: copy a damaged hard drive and skip bad sectors
  • Migration: completely migrate from one hard drive to another
  • Ultimate backup: Make an exact copy of the hard drive for future use
  • Backup: create an image of a USB flash stick and copy/restore at any moment
  • Software QA engineers: restore your OS hard drives at any moment from a compressed image
  • Duplicate/Clone/Save full image of any type of media!
Download Windows Installer (most people will want this option): HDD Raw Copy ver.1.10 setup
Download Windows Executable (works without installation): HDD Raw Copy ver.1.10 portable

Hey

For some reason I now do not see the option to double click to add my image file when I open HDD raw copy. I used itonce now I dont see that option so I canot write my PS2 image file. I uninstalled then reinstalled nothing
 
What do You mean by that? You choosing device in first step (file is displaying as device, the same as HDD) as I remember, then You can overwrite it by image file or create image file from it.

@jolek This description is full of marketing bullshit for none technical peoples. It is enough to say that HDDRCT support ALL kind of devices exposed as devices by Windows. So all today, past and future which even isn't exist yet. ;) Application doesn't touch media logic so file systems etc. etc. doesn't any matter, it don't understand it, because there is no such needs. It is simple tool to making sector by sector images. Like dd on Linux. It can also compressing images on the fly by some crappy algo, so it is still better use dd with cat and some compressor like xz. Just FYI.

I don't see tje option to open the file location. It just displays my connected drives and for the file option "IMAGE OF USB Flash Memory PMAP"
 
What do You exactly want to achieve? Choosing disk image to overwrite device? Then choose FILE and image, in next step target device and confirm operation. Could You make a screenshot?

Oh I get it, it is already choosen disk image. Double click on it and change it. Maybe HDDRCT remember it and You forgot about it. In header of it's compressed image, there is information from label (if have any) and device type - and this is what is displaying.
