Do you preload data onto the drives or cards before shipping?
Yes. We can preload your content — software installers, presentation files, manuals, marketing assets or a read-only partition — during production, so the units arrive ready to hand to your customers. Preloading is done before final test and pack, and we can verify the load as part of batch testing. Tell us the files, the total size against the capacity, and whether the content should be writable or locked. Preloading saves your team the step of copying content and keeps the delivered product consistent across the whole batch.
What we need from you
The files, checked for viruses on your side before you send them.
The size versus capacity, so the load fits with headroom for the file system.
Whether the content is read-only or the user can add to it.
How it is verified
Preloaded content is checked during the batch test, not after packing, so a failed load is caught before the unit ships.
If the content is critical (a software key or a licensed installer), tell us and we add a verification step specific to it rather than relying on a generic capacity test.

Frequently asked questions
Can the preloaded content be read-only?
Yes. We can lock the loaded partition so end users cannot delete or overwrite it, which is common for installers and brand assets.
Does preloading slow production?
It adds a step, but it runs inline with test and pack rather than as a separate post-process, so the effect on lead time is small at normal volumes.
