Do i use the proper extracted data from my encrypted Truecrypt HDD for hashcat?

[Anthony]

Until now i was using

Code:

dd if=[FILE] of=[OUTPUT] count=200

That gives me 200kb of extracted data (A).

Using

Code:

dd if=[FILE] of=[OUTPUT] bs=512 count=1

gives me a 1kb file (B).

Comparing those two files, file A contains the data from file B.
Testing with usb stick using data from A and B data files provided in a success match using HC.  Thus delievered the test password.

So, the data i was using until now seems to be correct, just more data than needed.
Thus, I just have to addapt the password masks further, right?
