Seems to manage to access NTFS structures directly without going through the OS - a few instances, Windows has said a disk was blank and needed to be formatted, and Easyrecovery recovered all the data. Well, the great majority of it. Generally it was failing hardware that was causing those problems. Phillip Partipilo Parametric Solutions Inc.

Anyone have any ideas for rebuilding the MFT after corrupting the primary and backup version of it on a hard drive for a Toshiba laptop? Hoping that if the MFT is gone (both versions) the data is still there and may be recoverable somehow?

Does anyone here have any decent stress test tools? When we get a new server we like to soak test it on the bench for a couple of days, but what Id like to do is run some tests on it that stress the CPU, Memory, HDD's etc... Does anyone do this, and if so what do you use? Iv looked at UBCD, but it has too many things on it really, Id like something I can boot the server with and it just gets on with it, it would be handy if it runs inside Windows as well as being a boot disk. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ -- If this email is spam, report it here: http://www.onlymyemail.com/view/?action=""> BqcEBwc25ldC5jb20%3D THIS ELECTRONIC MESSAGE AND ANY ATTACHMENTS ARE CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY PROPERTY OF THE SENDER.
