Hello All,

Got an external Rosewood that has Storage Spaces on it. Never seen one on external drive before. Anyway, as it is Rosewood that had damaged head it also has some bad sectors on it. DE does not see files structure. Also UFS. But mounted DE task works good and Windows gives access to data. My problem is that i cannot show the owner which files are damaged. Scanning in DE or UFS gives files structure but many files recovered this way do not work. More than 98% recovered from mounted task do work. So my question is, is there any software that can use info from PC3000 to create good/bad files list?

Can PC3000 write a fill pattern to bad sectors? If so, then search for this fill pattern in your recovered files.

Can you open that in DMDE perhaps?

Yes, PC3000 can fill with pattern. With that option i can save files and use, for example, HDDSurgery's file lister to create a list with those damaged based on signature. Thanks for the tip.

In the past, before the free tool offered by hddsurgery and also before i bought the license of ufs explorer, i used Agent Ransack to do this kind of work. I had discussed about it 5 years ago, if anyone is interested into it this is the topic link:

Maybe check the new released PC3000 version. Changekog states:"support for new Windows Storage Spaces metadata versions"

Thank you, will check it for future cases like this.


I did. There's an option to scan WSS metadata that gives a map of used sectors. Not acurate in my opinion. Or to search for file system structures that gives the structure but many files recovered this way are damaged.

I solved the case by writing a pattern to sectors that were not recovered, mounted the task in Windows, saved all the files and used HDDSurgery's file list program.
