Hi guys

I have a WD with 7488 bad sectors. I know it needs replacing, but I want to get my files from it without needing to wait for two years.

Any ideas?

If you are prepared to risk your data, apply the "slow fix" with HDDSuperTool and then clone the drive with HDDSuperClone.

Should be reasonably straightforward (at the moment) with the right professional equipment and not too expensive, if you’d like to send it in! :-)

I've sent PCImage work in the past and they are very good, so you don't need to worry on that score..
