Spinrite has been around for years. Basically it takes a failing hard
drive and does a low-level format on it on the fly. More technically,
it copies a cylinder of the hard drive to a test cylinder at the back
end of the drive, reformats the cylinder and then restores the data back
to the original drive. This can often fix a hard drive which is failing
due to logical errors; i.e. unreadable sectors and things like that.
