ScanDisk |
|
A program used to check for, diagnose, and repair damage on a hard disk or diskette. Part of your routine hard disk maintenance, (along with defragmenting your hard disk) should include a periodic run of ScanDisk to keep your hard disk in good repair. In its standard test, ScanDisk checks the files and folders on a disk or diskette for logical errors, and if you ask it to, automatically corrects any errors it finds. ScanDisk checks for crosslinked files, which occur when two or more files have data stored in the same cluster (a storage unit on a disk). The data in the cluster is likely to be correct for only one of the files, and may not be correct for any of them. ScanDisk also checks for lost file fragments, which are pieces of data that have become disassociated with their files. |
