I too have successfully used SpinRite to salvage data from failing hard drives, more than once. It cannot save every situation as some sectors can be damaged beyond recovery, but this tool is truly excellent and worth every penny of its low price.
In the case of vintage drives, alignment between heads and written sectors may have drifted slightly over the years, and using SpinRite 'realigns' this by safely reading and re-writing every disk sector, so it's really the ideal tool when re-purposing old drives. --Bob Prosperi |
