LowLevelFormat utility on damaged hard disk

April 2nd, 2007, 14:04

Hello,
i was trying to clone 1 hdd to bigger one (250mb), but acronis trueimage stops with an error in reading source, ghost stop with an error on writing (???) so i dont know if the source is damaged or destination (or software error!!)
The LLF utility runned on a damaged media, report any type of message? The LLF make a write and read operation on every sector so i can be sure that the media is good after llf withoun any message error?
Thanks!

You have your own answer there
but acronis trueimage stops with an error in reading source


LLF will overwrite your data so you will lose it for good. Check your source drive with MHDD scan only to see if you have bads or corrupt data. Once you know you can proceed from there.
