So does SpinRite. Brett was correct about older versions, but SpinRite 5
can do it all. Well worth the upgrade.

BTW, is there a program like that for FreeBSD? SpinRite works great on
maintaining my Windows partitions, but it cannot handle the FreeBSD
sections of my hard drive. Or does FreeBSD fix disk problems automatically?
