**NOTE** I'm well aware that no one is going to guarantee the safety of
the data with a test like this. I'm asking for an option, not an
endorsement.
With some drives ( not many ) I do find that they'll read fine but their
write ability is damaged. With ddrescue I modified the
check_identical() function in main.cc to not abort when I do ddrescue
-v -f -X0 -P16 /dev/sdc /dev/sdc readwritetest.log
So far it seems to work, the data remains intact.
Would it be possible to have a --write-test option that'll allow you to
bypass the "Infile and outfile are them same" test ?
Regards,
Paul.
