Recover data from your CDs or DVDs with Dvdisaster

Surely it has ever happened to you, (and surely more than once) that you need some information that is stored on a CD or DVD, and when you go to look for it, the optical disk has some damage or is very difficult to read, it may be because it is scratched, or because of a defective recording and we cannot access the information we need.

Well, not everything is lost, there is still a possibility to recover the data that is on a disk, and you can give a chance to Dvdisaster before throwing the disc in the trash.

What is Dvdisaster about?

This is a tool designed for optical drive data recoveryWell be CDs, DVDs or Blu-Rays. Not only does it allow us to retrieve information, we can also check the condition of the discs, with a graph that details their status.

This tool reads and reviews the entire optical surface of the CD or DVD, detecting the sectors that are damaged and after 5 simple steps, it will create an image ISO of everything he recovered from your album.

Dvdisaster is very easy to use.

First we will place the disk in the unit, and when we open the program, we click on READ, This part of the process can take a long time, everything will depend on the size of the disc and of course, the degree of deterioration it has. At the end of this process, we will go to the option CREATE, this option will take care of doing the ISO image of the disk data, with SCAN it only reads the disc but does not create the ISO, and through the graphics we will follow the development of the entire process, and to finish in FIX, which will try to recover the damaged sectors, so we will get to VERIFY, with which we will obtain the final result of the entire process and all that it could save Dvdisaster.

I want to make it clear that it is very likely that 100% of the content of the disc will not be recovered, but if it could recover a good part of it, always depending on how damaged the disc is.

The most important thing about this program is that it is free and multiplatform, the simplest installation in GNU / Linux is to download the package directly from the repository of the distro you use. This is a valuable tool, with it recovering data on optical devices is simple, it is a good tool to have in your repertoire.
