Re: What's the Point of Spinrite 6?

What do you mean by align drives? It does not defragment the drives nor change any file placement (unles there is unrecoverable error). I recall buying the software a while back but now looking back on it I am seeing it so far as a useless purchase. Any failure I had that I could not recover via chkdsk was a total head ramming against the platers failure (with the familiar click click click sound) or a total motor failure.
And no, Spinrite could not recover the "click click click" Failure.
I mean most of the times when my HD totally falied, even BIOS could not ID them so there was no use to run any utility since their presence was transparent to the system.

My answer was in a category that is colloquially referred to as 'joke'.

If you search with google, I'm sure you can find an explanation of the concept.
