Disk Checker 2.1 (Shareware, $15)

Disk Checker is a full-featured disk diagnostics and repairs tool with backup ability. The program runs under Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP. Disk Checker includes two separate methods of disk checking: using file-access or direct access to disk surface. The direct access method is much faster and is perfect for large number of small files. Disk Checker can report defective sectors numbers as well as the file name they belong to. Removable (floppy, ZIP, ORB, JAZZ, etc), hard and CD-ROM disks are supported when using direct access method (you must have administrator rights to perform hard drive checking under Windows NT/2000/XP). For above cases as well as for remote disks, RAM disks and network drives you can also use the file-access method. You can use this program for backup purposes as well. Disk Checker can create disk images compatible with disk image files produced by other disk copy utilities
