This program comes with hardly any documentation, and it doesn't explain what it does, either. If you have not used other tools to edit disk blocks or files on a binary level before, you may find it difficult to use.
Beware: This tool lets you mess with your disk contents in a rather unsafe manner: You can easily write over any data on a disk, rendering the entire disk unusable. So you better know what you're doing, especially if you use any "write" operations. And keep backups of your data on other disks.
Features:
• Reads, edits and writes disk blocks
• Works over a network (internet)
• Supports Mac, Windows and Linux
• Has expandable template system for structural data
• Knows about Partitions, HFS, UDF, ISO 9660 and more
• Scriptable block scan (e.g. for search, replace)
• Can view disks in custom block sizes.
• Deals gracefully with read errors: You can copy a partially-damaged disk to an image file (bad blocks will become zero-filled in the copy) in order to use recovery tools on the error-free copy then.
• When modifying data, a "journal" file is written to your desktop that contains the previous data of the altered blocks, and it can be used to undo your changes.
• Can view partitions and other subranges as containers with their own start, length and block size.
• Can be re-launched with admin (root) rights to access non-removable disks (Mac OS X only).
• Detects connected iPods, showing their firmware partition contents.
• Can access disks remotely over a network connection.
• Can save a range of blocks to a file and write a file back to disk.
• Has a powerful template system to view and analyse disk structures.
• Can edit MBR and GPT partition tables.
• Can install a PC BIOS bootloader dealing with both MBR and GPT.
Requirements:
OS X 10.6+
Intel
