DiskWarrior - A very useful disk repair tool
So, does anyone ever use DiskWarrior as a preventative maintenance tool? As in scanning a drive/partition every few months or so for directory damage? Seems to me like this would be a good thing to do on a semi-regular basis.

I run it once every two months just to be on the safe side.

DiskWarrior is excellent in all cases and should be the only thing you need to fix your problems. After reading a great article on fragmentation with HFS+ Drives, I threw out my other utilitys(Tech Tool Pro, Norton etc.) You DO NOT need to defrag an OS X volume with the same mentality as a windows user. "I NEED to get rid of my BAD Blocks!". It does not work the same way. All I use is DiskWarrior for optimization and for extreme cases of recovery, Data Rescue X. That is it! Well, and some sort of cron, permission, prebinding utility. But they are free. I roar the Warrior about once a month and it definately speeds up my drive. Don't believe the hype Norton and Tech Tool have ruptured my drive in the past. They try and fail to do too much that is not needed.

I use DiskWarrior in that way...particularly if our power company has had some power issues lately (I need to get a new UPS). However, since Journalling, I've not noticed any real problems (and not hardly any at all since Jaguar). |
