gamefixer Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 A friend of mine told me about a software tool that he bought from Japan that is capable of scanning/editing files on a hard drive no matter what the format is. He said that he used the tool in Linux (after booting from a Live CD) but he doesn't remember the name of the tool. Only thing he can remember is that when the tool loads it puts up an IBM splash screen. Anyone ever hear of anything like that?Thanks for your time.

Tripredacus Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I can't really find any pay products, but these 2 IBM apps:IBM version of EZ-Smarthttp://www.techrepublic.com/article/get-smart-to-predict-hard-drive-failures/1055303IBM Feature/Align Tool:http://download.chip.eu/en/IBM_Hitachi-Feature-Tool_1573833.htmlhttp://www.hgst.com/support/downloads/#FeatureToolBut those aren't for files. Maybe something on the UBCD, which has a lot of hard disk related programs included:http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamefixer Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Yeah, those apps dont sound like what he was talking about. I forgot to mention that the IBM app comes on a non copyable flash drive that has to be mounted after the OS boots. I'm hoping that he get back to me later today.
