Strategies for Rebuilding with DiskWarrior Chapter 2: Using DiskWarrior 35

Strategies for Rebuilding with DiskWarrior

Caution: If you suspect there is directory damage on your disk, it is recommended that you

run DiskWarrior before other disk repair utilities. Other disk repair utilities may render the

directory damage irreparable even to DiskWarrior. As you have seen in the previous section,

DiskWarrior shows you your rebuilt disk before ﬁnalizing the repairs. This allows you to

preview what your rebuilt disk will look like before you decide to ﬁnalize the rebuild. The

other utilities may perform actions on your disk that result in a “repaired” directory

structure but with missing or damaged data, or they will incorrectly begin to “repair” your

directory and then give up when they realize that they have modiﬁed the directory to an

irreparable state (for more information on directory structure and directory data, refer to

What Is the Directory? on page 9, "Chapter 1: Introduction."). These cases may prevent

even DiskWarrior from recovering all of your ﬁles.

Using DiskWarrior as Preventative Maintenance

The most basic use of DiskWarrior is as preventative maintenance for your disks. Many forms of

directory damage do not manifest themselves until long after the damage has actually occurred.

You can prevent this damage from escalating by running DiskWarrior on your disks regularly.

DiskWarrior will rebuild your disk directory, eliminating all existing directory damage. The re-

built disk directory will also be optimized for maximum disk performance. Simply run

DiskWarrior on a regular basis, and you will be able to prevent minor directory errors from turn-

ing into major catastrophes!

Using DiskWarrior When There Seems to Be a Problem

As you use your computer, particularly after crashes, you may believe files or folders to be

missing, or there may be crashes when ﬁles are used. You may have another program, such as

PlusOptimizer, reporting directory damage. You can use DiskWarrior to rebuild your disk direc-

tories, and thus recover the missing ﬁles or folders, reduce the likelihood of crashes, or allow

your disk optimization program to optimize your disk.

Previously accessible data suddenly disappearing, an error message stating your drive is not rec-

ognized, a scraping or rattling sound from your hard drive, or your hard drive not spinning may

all be symptoms of hardware problems. Most times, DiskWarrior’s hardware monitoring will be

able to tell you what problems are being caused by your drive. However, the drive’s built-in di-

agnostics will have to detect the malfunction in order for DiskWarrior to report it. For informa-

tion on DiskWarrior’s hardware monitoring, refer to About DiskWarrior’s Hardware

Monitoring on page 44 in this chapter.
