This clip was made in San Francisco with Patrick Norton, then the host of "The ScreenSavers" television show on TechTV. Patrick and Steve Gibson had a good discussion about the data recovery aspects of SpinRite 6 and how SpinRite is able to recover data even from impossible to read hard and floppy drive sectors.

  • Well you have a right to your opinion, however mistaken you are. I just told you I used Microsoft's command line tools " FIXMBR " and CHKDSK /R ( Recovery ) to do the repair which in most cases works. The boot sector MBR was not corrected. Spinright repaired the sector, so I did not have to format the 2003 server OS with a installation of SQL 2000 with a 100GB database.

  • I used it myself and it helped repair a drive with a damaged NTFS bootsector that " FixMBR" and Chkdsk /r would not repair.

  • The funny thing is, I ran SpinRite on my laptop hard drive, and I get zero ECC. How is it possible?

  • Fuckin computer nerds xDD

  • What are you talking about? Spin write is a good app. Ive used it for years. Never a problem...alot of people feel like I do. People feel your way to but believe me..spin write is not bunk man.Speak for yourself not everyone. Screensvers was a trusted show, and i think they also like the app.
