Ddrescue. [ English | Español | Français | Italiano ] Introduction GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying to rescue the good parts first in case of read errors. Ddrescuelog is a tool that manipulates ddrescue mapfiles, shows mapfile contents, converts mapfiles to/from other formats, compares mapfiles, tests rescue status, and can delete a mapfile if the rescue is done. Ddrescuelog operations can be restricted to one or several parts of the mapfile if the domain setting options are used. The basic operation of ddrescue is fully automatic. That is, you don't have to wait for an error, stop the program, restart it from a new position, etc. If you use the mapfile feature of ddrescue, the data is rescued very efficiently, (only the needed blocks are read). Ddrescue does not write zeros to the output when it finds bad sectors in the input, and does not truncate the output file if not asked to.
