Hi there,

I would like to know if a Raptor harddrive would be able to recover data quicker then a normal hdd spinning at 7200 rpm?
For example, let say I have a damaged HDD with logical errors. If i then Clone the faulty HDD with Media Tools Pro and after that transfer the image to my Raptor, would I then be able to use MHDD/Spinrite/ and data recovery tools with faster results?

You will always be limited to the speed of the defective media.

And if you manage to secure an image of the defective media with media tools, what benefit is it to make the logical recovery faster? data would at this point would be secure and safe, isnt this the desired result anyway?

I think he want todo RAW recovery.

but by the time you image the drive and then scan the drive on the raptor it would be like 1 + 1 = 3

But essentially it will read the data faster on the raptor , yes.
Like hddguy said, why?
