Hello Antonio, Yes, I can confirm that that was a log file produced by ddrescue, viewed whilst ddrescue was still running.
I've rechecked its status this morning though and it now seems to have filled in that area: 0x8DD96F4000 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F4200 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F4800 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F4A00 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F5000 0x00000400 - 0x8DD96F5400 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F5A00 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F5C00 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F6200 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F6400 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F6A00 0x00000400 - 0x8DD96F6E00 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F7400 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F7600 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F7C00 0x00000200 - 0x8DD96F7E00 0x00000600 + 0x8DD96F8400 0x00000400 - 0x8DD96F8800 0x00000600 + etc This was without me taking any manual action on the log file.
