The Hard Disk Validator is a portable tool that allows you to diagnose and identify defective sectors on hard drives (HDDs). It enables you to check the integrity of your hard drive, helping to determine if it is nearing the end of its lifespan.
Defective sector detection: Performs a complete scan of the hard drive to identify damaged sectors that may compromise storage performance and reliability.
Read and write tests: Offers different testing modes, including reading, reading with overwriting damaged sectors, reading after overwriting, writing, and verification, allowing for a detailed analysis of the drive's condition.
Intuitive graphical interface: Presents a visual interface that makes it easy to interpret the test results, clearly indicating problematic sectors.
Risk of data loss: Some testing modes, such as writing to the disk, may result in data loss. It is highly recommended to perform complete backups before using the tool.
Need for technical knowledge: Although the interface is intuitive, correctly interpreting the test results may require some technical knowledge about how hard drives function.
