Has anyone tried Disk Investigator?

<quote> What is Disk Investigator? - Disk Investigator helps you to discover
all that is hidden on your computer hard disk. It can also help you to
recover lost data. Display the true drive contents by bypassing the
operating system and directly reading the raw drive sectors. View and search
raw directories, files, clusters, and system sectors. Verify the
effectiveness of file and disk wiping programs. Undelete previously deleted
files. </quote>

Yes, I have. It works pretty good too, usually. Does just what it
says. Thanks for mentioning it, Frank. I see that they have a newer
version (1.31) than the one I'm using (1.3). I'll upgrade it.

It's very good. But it can not display double-byte characters stored on
HDD.

IIRC, you can not use it to modify the contents of an HDD.

PTS-DiskEditor

Will allow you to modify/edit contents on a HDD.

Note: The PTS-DiskEditor will NOT function under WinNT/2000/XP !
However, it makes an excellent repair tool when using a DOS Boot disk, and
is very helpful in changing the MBRs of WinNT/2000/XP OSs.
