-Although there are definitely similarities between dc3dd and [[dcfldd]], the programs are based on slightly different code bases and have different feature sets.
+Although there are definitely similarities between dc3dd and [[dcfldd]], the programs are based on slightly different code bases and have different feature sets. dcfldd is a fork of GNU dd, whereas dc3dd is a patch to the current version. This means that dc3dd will be updated every time GNU dd is updated, whereas dcfldd has its own release schedule. Certain features added to GNU dd after dcfldd forked, such as direct input/output mode, are not found in dcfldd.
