AFR-07 All data sectors acquired from the digital source are acquired accurately.
AIC-01
The data represented by an image file is the same as the data acquired by the
tool
AIC-02 The tool creates an image file according to the file format the user specified.
AIC-05
If multi-file image creation and the image file size is selected, the tool creates
a multi-file image except that one file may be smaller
AIC-06
If the image file integrity check is selected, the tool shall report to the user the
image file has not been changed if the image file has not been changed.

image file has been changed if the image file has been changed.
If the image file integrity check is selected, the tool shall report to the user the
image file has been changed and the involved location if the image file has
been changed.
