ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A system and method for transferring data from a first storage medium to a second storage medium, each of the storage media being divided into corresponding data blocks, the method comprising steps of (a) reading data stored in a first data block in the first storage medium, the first data block initially constituting a current data block; (b) comparing data read in the current data block to data stored in a corresponding data block in the second storage medium; (c) if the data compared in step b are identical, reading data stored in a different data block in the first storage medium, the different data block becoming the current data block, and returning to step b; (d) modifying the data stored in one of the storage media such that the data in the current data block is identical to the corresponding data in the second storage medium; and (e) rereading the data in the current data block and returning to step b.
