Optimize your drive with Drive Genius 3. Yes, this is the same product used by Apple at the Genius Bar to defrag your drive! Repair - Quickly fix corruption and errors to get your damaged drive up and running fast. Sector Edit - Fine tune all aspects of your system with direct, advanced byte viewing and editing.
Information - In-depth report of specifications and space utilization of all drives or OS X volumes. DriveSlim - Free up more space on your hard drive. Benchtests - Comprehensive speed tests and graphical comparisons. Shred - Stop prying eyes with DoD compliant Clone - Fast and easy volume or entire drive cloning. Integrity Check - Comprehensive hardware verification tests. They are specialized tools with a better than average possibility of disastrous consequences so they should be put out of the way.
The Integrity Check option comprises a collection of diagnostic tools for checking hardware verification by writing and reading various block sizes to and from the drive. Settings that can be adjusted include block transfer size 2 KB for server setups to 16 MB for graphic, digital audio and video applications , length of test 1 minute to 1 day , type of test sequential read, sequential write, random read, random write and graph type bar graph, line graph, raw data.
Benchtest is a performance tool that checks drivers, CPU's, OS's and data transfer efficiency of volumes and outputs the results in either graphical or numeric formats. Like the Integrity check tool, results can be displayed by graph type bar graph, line graph or raw data. Be warned that you have to unmount the volume to conduct both the integrity check and the benchtest utilities so, again, it's advisable to boot from the CD as a matter of course.
A Scan test for surface sector verification is also included as an option in the main window. This utility reads blocks in sequential order and displays bad blocks as it finds them, in real time. To access the Initialize and Repartition functions, open Drive Genius, select the volume in the left hand pane, select the device button under this pane and the Initialize and Repartition buttons will appear in place of the Repair and Defragment buttons along the bottom of the window.
Initializing the drive performs as Disk Utility does: an Apple driver is installed and the clean volume is mounted on the desktop. The Repartition utility is very cool; it allows you to resize and manage, expand or shrink and create or delete partitions without erasing them. The Repartition window includes a left hand pane with the existing partitions in a list and a new set of buttons at the bottom of the window that correspond to repartition functions partition info, reset partition map, add a new volume, delete a partition, hide and reveal partitions, shift volumes and resize.
The included Drive Genius Help File in PDF format is very helpful, with ample screen shots associated with each button, which represent particular tasks and provide good explanations of the various included utilities. One improvement request would be that the Show Help As is, when Drive Genius is open, clicking the Show Help
