This clip was made in Toronto where Leo Laporte hosts his "Call For Help" television show for TechTV. Steve Gibson and Leo had a good discussion about how all modern drives have become dependent upon built-in error correction, and how SpinRite 6 monitors the drive's use of ECC (Error Correction Code) on the fly to help provide a highly sensitive early warning of impending drive failure.

  • In all my software buys this have been the best by a mile!! BUY IT!

  • Wow, Steve looks as if he just drank a huge cup of strong coffee.

  • lol at the haters below, if you ever become 1/100th as successful as leo laporte(he was recently voted president of the internet!) instead of trolling on youtube, maybe then people might actually care about the nonsense your spouting.

  • Yeah, thanks to the ULer

  • Totally agree.All the videos with this clown he can't shut his mouth.

    Give him something to eat while Steve speaks.

  • Man, I will fix your hard drive for free if the fat fuck on the right would only shut up and allow Steve to talk..

  • Times have changed again...I can get a 1TB drive for £100

  • This video takes more space than the application discussed here. Every PC owner should have this application and run it faithfully once a month

  • I bought mine to support Steve and Leo's podcast Security Now. Awesome stuff. Thanks for the video Jose.

  • Serial Number for Spinrite? Doesn't matter... when you buy it (or I guess download it) it doesn't ask for a CD Key or anything.

    What actually happens is Spinrite writes the purchaser's name on the screen... so if Steve Gibson happens to see his program on a torrent site or something, he'll know who put it up.
