Manufacturer's Description
What is DiskWarrior?
DiskWarrior is the safest, most technologically advanced, most powerful utility to eliminate directory damage available for any computer. DiskWarrior uses a different approach to disk directory repair than other programs. DiskWarrior is not a disk repair program in the conventional sense. Instead of patching the original directory, it uses a patent-pending technology to quickly build a new replacement directory using data recovered from the original directory, thereby recovering files, folders and documents that you thought were lost and that no other program could recover.

How does DiskWarrior recover data no one else can?
At Alsoft, we know that the most important thing when you are attempting to repair your disks is getting your data back. That's why the first thing DiskWarrior does is scavenge your original directory to find all the file data it can. It then uses this data to build an entirely new replacement directory.

DiskWarrior is the only product that finds all of your data.
Its patent-pending method always results in a perfectly rebuilt directory without any errors and that contains all of your file and folder data.

Worth the money
I bought this a while ago when my Mac mini developed a problem with the hard drive (admittedly user induced). Disk utility couldn't fix it and the OS got gradually worse until it completely gave up. It wouldn't even start up or allow a complete reinstall from the original disk.

Disk warrior rectified the problem and amazingly the OS rebooted without any loss to my files or settings - a credit to Mac OSX. I find it speeds up my Macbook - it will boot up in 17 sec, however it does tend to slow if not used regularly whereas OSX just used to keep on top of things. I'll let you make up your own mind on this point.

In short if you have a problem Disk Utility can't solve, it's highly likely DW will sort it.

Disk Warrior is a Data Life Saver
I bought Disk Warrior 4 in desperation, after all my data on a 250Gb drive had become unreadable. Disk Utilities found 2 irreparable errors 1) Invalid node structure 2) Invalid b-tree structure. DW4 fixed it inside 5 minutes with no data loss.

A lifesaver!
Yesterday morning I was ready to slit my wrists, when a Leopard installation went wrong and made my Tiger hard drive unbootable. DiskWarrior arrived at 8 this morning and sorted everything out in a matter of minutes. Bravo for an unbeatable bit of software - worth every penny.
