Copy file IF to OF. BS is blocksize in bytes, default to 512. C is blocks to copy, default is total blocks in IF. IN specifies number of blocks to skip when read, default is 0. OUT specifies number of blocks to skip when write, default is 0. Skipped blocks are not touched. Both IF and OF must exist.
dd is dangerous, use at your own risk. To be on the safe side, you should only use dd to write a file in memory.
In some cases when writing a file in NTFS, dd might fail.
