Safecopy is a data recovery tool which tries to extract as much data as
|
|
possible from a problematic (i.e. damaged sectors) source - like floppy drives,
|
|
hard disk partitions, CDs, tape devices etc, ... , where other tools like dd
|
|
would fail due to I/O errors.
|
|
Safecopy includes a low level IO layer to read CDROM disks in raw mode, and
|
|
issue device resets and other helpful low level operations on a number of other
|
|
device classes.
|
|
The project also includes a device simulator which can be used to simulate bad
|
|
media for testing and benchmarking safecopy as well as other data rescue tools.
