Reading the MacWorld article…pretty amazing that it's been 8 years since the last Diskwarrior release (Diskwarrior 4).īy the way…just a personal thought. But at $120 (and able to get most/all of the functionality from other much lower cost/free apps)…not a difficult decision. If Diskwarrior was priced MUCH less…I would probably give it a try. I mostly use Time Machine, older version of CCC or Super Duper, and Onyx. If I already have backups of my info…I don't need a file recovery app like Diskwarrior. When (I think)…I get most of the features that Diskwarrior does with: But for me personally.$120 is a lot to spend on this app. Since with a mechanical HD failure…recovery is pretty darn difficult (for a home user) if the disk isn't spinning…or if the read/write heads aren't working. This is assuming that the crash wasn't an actual mechanical HD failure. I think that recovering files from a crashed HD is supposed to be much more successful if Diskwarrior was installed before the crash. So maybe to these folks…$99 or $120 is worth it to get their files back (if they're even recoverable).įor the "proactive" person buying Diskwarrior (or a similar app). I think that a lot of folks that buy it…buy it after the fact (after their HD has died)…and want/need to recover files. So I guess $120 is a price increase.Īs far as is it worth it. I think that the previous version was $99.
