How to backup a SCSI2SD card?

[Michele31415]

I want to make a backup of my SCSI2SD SD card.  What's the best way to do this?  Can I just plug the SD card into my PC and copy&paste its contents to my hard disk there?

Thanks very much for the suggestions.  I'm not having much luck so far but I'm still working on it.  Is WinUAE able to mount a bare SCSI2SD SD card?  I thought that the SCSI2SD provided the translation needed for the Amiga to see a particular block on the SD card as a virtual SCSI device.

I also tried using dd on my Ubuntu in Virtualbox but it doesn't even see the card, although it sees other USB devices.  Same problem on my Solaris machine.  I tried using a dd program for the PC and that didn't work at all.  That's where I am now.

You can use Win32DiskImager to make backup copies of memory cards.

To restore such an image you need a card which is at least the same size as the image. You cannot shrink the size onto a smaller card.

Ah!  Thanks very mcuh.  That looks like exactly what I needed.  It's copying the card now (at least it says it is).  It's pretty slow on my old XP machine but I don't  need to do this often.
