Unfortunately, I don't have any of them. Where can I get them?
I also tried Master DOS and its BACKUP "d1" TO "d2" command, as it is known to copy only used sectors. But there are still some unwanted bits copied. I don't understand, what's wrong here...

Look up SDU or IBU that I used to flog.
Although not ideal they are written in basic and so will be easily modified.
They scan the directory and calculate which sectors are "live" and copy only those. So erased files wouldn't copy to a blank disk.
