NO but I do have this advice: Before using either back up your files. If 
there is serious damage, the software puts your drive in memory while 
it's being repaired. I made the mistake of repeatedly making it compare 
and fix until the finder ran out of memory. The program asked to be 
restarted - it was the only thing I could do -- and the contents of the 
drive, including the drivers, was lost. Thus I was left with an empty, 
unmounted drive.

I fixed this easily of course but my person lost her newest email 
addresses because she had not backed then up since I last visited.
I am now shopping for a Zip drive for her.

This was the first time I ever lost data in a fix. Never again!
Disk Warrior also does this so as I said, run what you want, but BACK UP 
FIRST.
