Why each option

USB Dumper is a tool that automatically and silently copies all files from a USB storage device to a local folder the moment the device is plugged in.

AUSB Grabber

USB Grabber refers to hardware or software used to capture video input over USB, not to silently copy files from storage devices.

BUSB DumperCorrect

USB Dumper runs as a background process and requires no user interaction to exfiltrate data - it detects a newly connected USB drive and copies its contents to a predefined hidden directory without displaying any prompts or notifications, making it suited for covert data theft.

CUSB Sniffer

A USB Sniffer captures and analyzes low-level USB bus packets for protocol debugging, not for copying files off a drive.

DUSB Snoopy

USB Snoopy is not a recognized tool for silently copying files from USB devices and does not describe this functionality.
