Only relevant when using disk-backed objects. If TRUE a copy will be made leaving the original object (dat) unchanged. The input object will not be preserved if copy=FALSE
blockSize
The array is divided into a series of blockSize x blockSize rectangular blocks and the average signal level calculated for each. If blockSize is unspecified a size is chosen that gives about 1250 probes per block.

Details
The array is divided into a set of blockSize x blockSize squares. A kernel smoother is then used to even out spatial artifacts.
