Synopsis: ADRC Data Recovery Tools contains a collection of data recovery tools that supports a wide variety drives and file systems. It enables you to undelete files, create a disk image for backup, restore a backup image, copy files from hard disk with bad sectors, clone a disk, backup/edit/restore your boot parameters etc. As with most tools of this nature, administrator privileges are required to use the tools.

Note: ADRC Data Recovery Tools has the annoying habit of opening its user guide on the web in the web browser on startup. This behaviour cannot be disabled. It is not as stealthy as phoning home without your knowledge, but can be quite irritating nevertheless.

[Anonymous] Hugh_HI tried the image backup utility. It creates a file equal in size to the disc you're backing up, regardless of how much is actually in use, and it's slow. I mean, 18hrs. for a 110GB drive slow! (on a core2-duo 3.2gHz with 2GB RAM)
When it finishes, it doesn't say or do anything. It just stops, and since the last "progress block" appears before file writing ends, you have to use a file I/O activity monitor to know when it's done.

This thing is probably fine, but it's not the hot deployment tool you're looking for.

[Anonymous] GnartIt doesn't produce a bit-stream copy (forensic safe). I restored a forensic safe image of a drive and then create an image with this software. I computed the hash values for the images, they don't match. I am albeit leary of this. [2009-10-11 03:52]

[Anonymous] clementI think to produce a forensic copy, you will need to connect the drive to a write block device. You can not use software this way to produce a forensic image. [2010-07-25 10:07]

All HTML tags will be removed from your comment. URLs (http, https, ftp) will be automatically detected and hyperlinked. I reserve the right to delete irrelevant, frivolous or offensive comments. For more general topics (eg. whether apps that write to the registry, leave traces on the host machine, rely on certain versions of IE etc. can be considered portable), please post to the Portable Freeware Discussion forum. If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
