Next message: Richard Doyle: "RE: [WinMac] WinGate, Mandrake Linux and Russian tech problem."
I'm currently running Norton Utilities 4.0 on my Power Mac
7200/120s, and on one of them I'm getting frequent bad block
messages from Norton Filesaver. I have no idea where the bad
blocks are coming from -- but I do trust it's not crying about the
same bad blocks over and over again.
Anyway, I would like to believe that in addition to fixing files that
are sitting on bad blocks, NDD also makes sure the system
doesn't try to write to those blocks again. But I don't see anything
to that effect in the preferences or the NU CD booklet.
Do any of you know if this version (or the latest version) of NU for
Mac ensures that bad blocks aren't written to? If it doesn't, what
program will? DiskWarrior?
Thanks in advance,
Bob
