Ddrutility is no longer actively supported. I was sure I had that information on here, but it seems to have disappeared , so I am stating it again.

Ddrutility is meant to be a compliment to gnuddrescue. It is a LINUX based set of utilities to help with hard drive data rescue. If you like it, please feel free to use the Donations tab above :)

version 2.8 released November 23, 2016
* No longer uses automake
* Uses regular make file
* No program changes were made

Please see the Files page or the readme.txt file for the full version changes (scroll down to the “NEWS” section).

Please see the Wiki or the help files for full documentation (note that the Wiki page does not seem to navigate properly, sorry).

User Reviews

  • While complex, this companion set of utilities to ddrescue really adds a wealth of incredibly useful and potentially data-saving features.
  • It delivers what promises, with excellent support from developer.
  • Unfortunately it is missing one section with examples. I suggest the developer to add one "Examples" section
