Hello,
Whats the best method of backup when HD is failing?
I'm thinking of using ddrescue.
I'm not sure how much I should trust this HD.
I'm getting "Error while copying file (Error splicing file: Input/output
error)" when copying a virtualbox image and a different vmware image.
Those are the messages I'm getting from the logs.
