[Mod note: the present is the official forum topic for Dirk Paehl's CheckDisk that's in TPFC database at https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1179. Post subject amended, original was "CheckDisk 1.05"]

CheckDisk is a powerful tool for searching and repairing disk errors. It is quite similar to the ScanDisk tool or chkdsk.exe, supplied with the Windows operating systems (Windows 2000 and higher. Under Vista with admin right). You can select either standard or full tests. The full test additionally performs a sector check. It is capable of finding bad sectors on your disk and marking them as such. The program works both with hard disks (including SCSI and RAID) and removable media. Work on CD too. With german manual.

The main webpage for this program was offline (programs by Dirk Paehl) who I think has done some other programs here on the site.
