[dba-Tech] SpinRite or?

[John R Bartow]

Hi Gustav,
I still have and use SpinRite on drives that need attention. It boots from a
USB drive or CD.
Regards,
John

Hi all

I have a 2 TB SATA disk which has gone bad. It is marked in Windows' Disk
Manager with "Error" and "at risk".

Decades ago I would have fired up SpinRite, but would that be of any use
today? It's a USD 90 purchase.
Or would you have other/better recommendations?
