CHD to the directory you want to copy, then  DSAVE /DIRECTORY 
/PATH/DIRECTORY/ ! SHELL

This outputs the DSAVE's output to the shell instead of to a file.



I backed up my hard drives with DSAVE /H0 /H1 ! SHELL.  I usually started 
just before going to bed so it could get the job done before I wanted to do 
something.
