We used to use it a lot in the 486 and Pentium days with the smaller hdd's
but haven't used it for a long time. As mentioned, it takes a long time,
all night or longer on a 30 -40 gig drive. Maybe the brand new one is
faster. Also don't seem to need them as much with the new drives either or
with NTFS I am not sure which is the case. Also Hdd drive manufactures now
have their own diagnostic programs for their drives. Anyway I mentioned to
the other tech a month or so ago about getting an upgrade and he didn't
think it would be worth it for us.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
