Yes, if you are doing a full disk copy, since that includes the
volume name.

You can simply accept any prompted volume name, knowing that
the copy will overwrite it.

Copy II Plus makes better use of extra RAM to copy disks a little
faster--and a lot faster for multiple copies, since if the disk image
fits in memory it doesn't re-read the original.
