A “USB copy service” means copying data from one USB drive to many other USB drives at the same time. A USB duplication service company is a good resource when the content owner does not have the equipment to produce large volumes of copies. Some duplication systems cost several thousand dollars, so it is often more economical to hire a service rather than invest in the hardware. Another common reason is a company not having the staff or internal workflow to run a dedicated USB duplication operation.

Picking the right USB duplication service matters because the job must be accurate and reliable. The service should understand USB flash media quality, since not all USB sticks are made the same and there is a wide range of NAND memory quality that affects long-term reliability. USBCOPIER.com is a service that has been around since 2004 and has seen USB evolve from USB 1.0 through today’s USB 3.2 generation.

Great USB Copy Service

USBCOPIER.com is easy to work with and available during business hours (8am to 4pm Pacific Time). They use professional USB duplication equipment (Nexcopy) to copy and verify data. That verification step is critical when the content being distributed actually matters.

USBCOPIER.com allows extensive customization in their USB duplication service. They provide a range of

Update: Nexcopy reports the USB duplicator will duplicate 30MBs of data to all 20 flash drives in about 40 seconds. The USB duplicator will copy 250MBs of data in about 3.5 minutes. So the USB duplicator has good performance on data copy speeds.

Nexcopy announced earlier this week their USB200PC USB Duplicator is available for purchase. This unit appears to be the easiest and most economical way to load content to USB flash memory. The USB duplicator is a PC-based system which copies from a master location to 20 slave ports. I would think this an excellent product for those looking to produce interactive product information, sales presentations or even USB music albums on flash memory.

Granted this could all be done on CD or DVD, but the idea I like about USB flash is its extreme portability, greater durability than optical media (no scratching or damage from direct sun), and the ability to be reused again and again like a big, fat floppy drive.

The USB duplicator concept seems to be a great method to manage an arsenal of flash memory, whether it be content loading to a new set of flash drives for a trade show, or updating a rotation of information to a group of USB drives (say for sales force or medical applications).

The Nexcopy USB200PC USB duplicator has some interesting features. The software will not only duplicate data, but has an option to duplicate only new and newer data. Meaning, if you don’t want to overwrite current data on the device, selecting the Copy New and Newer means it will only add data to the existing drive. This function also updates an old file with the newer version. This feature in itself makes USB drive flash management extremely easy and convenient.

The Nexcopy USB duplicator is priced at $1,299 for a 20-target USB copier, so the solution won’t kill your budget (like some $10,000+ systems I’ve seen).
