DC has nothing on DE...Although, DC has a much better price...I wouldn't want to own DC when they move on to other newer products and leave current users without support...DC's interface looks like a toy with many critical features intentially left out in my opinion...SD refuses to fix very basic flaws in its software and lies to customers about when it will do things. If anyone is considering purchasing the SD Doctor suite and wants a second opinion from a current user, feel free to send me a private message.

I don't work for SD or Ace...

Tis really depends on what you want to do with it... If you want to do just recoveries of drives that are (almost) working fine, but just have a lot of bad sectors of a minor firmware problems, I would go for the DC-tool. BUT if you want to be able to really fix firmwares on the most basic level, fix major problems or manipulate/exchange them, I choose the PC3K-UDMA.

I'm working with both tools at the same time here, you really have to choose when to use which tool. Both have there beneficts (DC -> Shadowdisk; PC3K -> better firmware handling), both have there uses. As I think of myself as a professional, I don't mind how much it costs, it has to do what it is made for. OK SA promisses more functionality than you get, but about their helpdesk I can't complain: they've helped me out several times (in spite of what others say, this is my experience); for good help over the phone from ACE-labs you better speak Russian (Also: my experience).

Choose wisely, and trust on what the professionals say, not on what the commercials say.
