What is DiskWarrior 2?

DiskWarrior is the most decorated and highest rated Mac disk repair utility ever. DiskWarrior uses a patent-pending method of rebuilding your directory from the data recovered in your damaged directory. This method recovers files and folders that you thought were lost and that no other program can recover. That's why no other program is as successful as DiskWarrior at repairing damaged disk directories. Disk Warrior 2.1 can also repair Mac OS X partitions from within Mac OS 9.

DiskWarrior optimizes your disk directory for maximum performance. Directory optimization typically results in a 50% to 60% decrease in the time it takes programs to scan the directory and a 10% to 20% decrease in startup time. Other programs don't provide the true directory optimization provided by DiskWarrior.

DiskWarrior can actually prevent directory damage before it occurs via it's exclusive and innovative DiskShield . DiskShield prevents disk damage by checking the validity of any data being written to the directory to prevent errant programs from destroying the directory. It also checks the validity of any directory data read from disk to alert you of any existing directory damage and to prevent the damage from escalating. Furthermore, DiskShield keeps the directories on the disks updated so that a crash or loss of power won't cause a loss of data. With DiskWarrior's nonstop disk protection, you may never experience disk damage again.

Note: DiskWarrior still can be purchased, see the Alsoft website. DO NOT upload it here without the author's permission.
