We bring to your attention a new version of our HDDL utility - version 2.0. The program allows you to: - Search for bad and long-reading blocks on the disk, and, in some cases, restoration/replacement of such units. - Build a time graph for verifying disk sectors in LBA mode, which allows you to visually assess the quality of the disk surface. - Change configuration settings of the screw - cache operating mode, LBA limit, noise level, etc. - Manage screw password protection - Load external microcode into the screw, for example, for updating microprograms - View SMART attributes, error and test logs, and also run SMART diagnostics. - View and edit the contents of disk sectors - Work with screw IDE registers - send commands, read results, exchange data blocks with the screw, etc. The following major changes are made in version 2.0: - Added a disk sector editor that allows you to change contents of any sector accessible via LBA. - Added a mode for quickly erasing a disk through the subsystem password protection. - Added the ability to create and edit the clipboard - Clipboard size increased to 512K.- Fixed loader loader, now you can load any loader sizes up to 32K. - In the sector verification utility, time is now set in milliseconds, At the same time, the resolution of the clock is increased by 4 times. Also Fixed bug with incorrect LBA increment size. - The procedure for plotting the verification speed graph has been seriously changed, Now it doesn’t hang for a long time on bad sectors. - The length of the description line of a saved command has been increased to 50 bytes. Well, as usual, old glitches have been removed and new ones have been added. The most important thing: you can take the program at ftp://195.209.232.10/pub/soft/hddl20.rar Now this server is somewhat overloaded - there are too many applicants download the file and rushed to it at the same time. If the file is not sent - try again later. Holders of technical sites can host this program, without asking permission. The only request is to place a link to our ftp. * Crossposted in SU.HARDW.PC.MEDIA Alexander - --- end of forward ---
