Cascade

If you have more than one floppy drive of the same type and are making multiple copies, you can use Cascade to "daisy chain" the drives so that they copy in sequence. Once the last diskette of the last drive in the chain has been copied to, DiskDupe sits and waits for the diskette in the first drive to change. Once this has changed, DiskDupe assumes that the rest of the drives in the chain also have new diskettes and continues making copies.

Select Source and choose the image file or drive that you will be reading from.

Select Destination, choose Cascade and enter the drives in the order you wish DiskDupe to cycle through them.

ABE:

Put a write-protected master disk into the first drive.

Select Duplicate and press Go.

DiskDupe will read the first disk and then wait for you to remove the disk and insert new ones in all the drives. DiskDupe will sense the disk change, make a copy in the first drive, and then switch to the next drive to make a copy. It will make copies until it reaches the end of the cycle and then waits for you to change the disks in all the drives.

DiskDupe will sense when you insert a new disk in the first drive and resume copying immediately.

DiskDupe will continue copying until the desired number of copies has been made or until you hit [Esc] to break the cycle. If a bad disk is encountered, you will have to remove it and insert a new disk in that same drive before DiskDupe resumes duplicating.
