I've used SpinRite in the past and have nothing but positive
recommendations for all that Steve Gibson's product does. One thing
though, and this is in the readme too, your drive might sound like it's
crashing when running spinrite but this just normal activity for it. Also,
the full operation of spinrite, where the entire disk is safeguarded, can
take about 24 hours for a 8 gb ATA33 drive. It does some very intensive
work. Once again I highly recommend it for disk scanning and data security.
