Speed Disk safe?
I must say that I have used Speed Disk (not System 2.0) at least 30 times on OS9 systems and now at least 15 times with OSX, without ever experiencing the slightest problem or worrisome idiosynchrocies. Maybe its dumb luck or I'm tempting fate, but some things I always do before Speed Disk is to run Disk Warrior and TechToolPro first, never use Disk Doctor (that one does seem to be flakey, often wanting to reverse TTP repairs) and to optimize often, rather than infrequently as fragmentation grows large. I'm aware that some believe optimizing/defrag to be unecessary or even counter-productive with Unix, but I always see a performance boost after, even if modest at times. Stable, no quits and fsck - y never detects errors either. Of course, everything is always totally backed-up with a mirror system at the ready, just in case, so I can continue to experiment freely.
Speed Disk safe?
I, too, have used Speed Disk a dozen times or so on my OS X system disk, with no apparent ill effects. |
