[QUOTE="michelangelo, post: 1681653, member: 54225"] Yes I did and attempted to do the recovery from the DiskWarrior rebuilt directory. There, instead of doing a copy through the finder, I was advised to use CCC as CCC is more forgiving that the finder when a copy of a file fails in between, CCC may even be kind enough to retry copying the file from the beginning (not sure), and ultimately resorts to moving on to the next file copying task ahead instead of hanging there (sure). Al in all, it about doubled my success rate (10 files recovered by the DiskWarrior + CCC routine instead of 5 simply trying my luck with the finder). No, I did not and still can do it (since this is my 2nd clone, I can reformat it at will without losing anything). But ... I don't know what a zero-out or one pass security write/wipe is. Please explain. TIA [/QUOTE]
