DiskWarrior 4.1 Is Ready For Leopard




Data loss is a problem that we have to fight sometimes, but best thing to do is backup your data on a regular basis so you won't have to do it. Anyway, when vital data seems to be lost forever, there are some things to try, before taking your computer to a specialized data recovery lab and pay a few times the value of the defective hard drive. On the Mac, one of the most notorious data recovery and file repair utility is DiskWarrior, and its latest version brings full Leopard compatibility.

Produced by Alsoft, DiskWarrior just reached version 4.1. According to the official site, the new version "offers additional repair capabilities including the ability to repair damaged directory hard links (a new feature of Leopard for Time Machine backups)", being "the only utility that can repair damaged links, directory loops and other problems that can happen with directory hard links" at this time.

This application supports any Mac OS HFS or HFS Plus disk, including RAID setups, FileVaults, Time Machine backups and iPods, and if you have a Mac capable of running Leopard, that should be more than enough, regarding the system requirements part.

Unfortunately, there's no trial version available (or maybe I didn't search properly, but I doubt it), so if you're interested in keeping your data safe, visit this page to find out more about pricing and availability in your area. Good luck and stay safe!
