Spinrite and the Security Now podcast are both done by Steve Gibson. He's more a marketing man than a programmer. His advise on security matters is frequently just plain wrong.
He writes fancy little click-bait headlines that get picked up by journalists who don't know any better. He sounds impressive to people not in the security fields - but to the people in security fields. You'll never find him at Defcon as he'd get laughed out of the place. His software products are mostly unproven - you won't find any third party studies listed in his marketing about their effectiveness.
He uses lots of big fancy technical words to impress and dazzle. For example, when you look at this site about SpinRite you'll see this: One of the founding fathers of the PC revolution, Don Watkins, made some room on his site to talk about my work and SpinRite 6.0. Who is Don Watkins? What was his contribution to the 'PC revolution'? He created a forum for PC users on CompuServe. He didn't write RFCs, he didn't invent a protocol, he didn't build an ISP or write some piece of software that everyone uses. He created a messageboard on someone else's forum.
But that's enough for Steve to run with it and put him on the same tier as Tim Berners Lee. It's pure marketing spin. Spinrite allegedly works by scanning through the disk, and on reaching a bad sector repeatedly attempts to read it over and over and over again, thousands of times.
It attempts to reconstruct the original data by looking at the thousands of bit reads - if it read that bit as a one 672 times and as a zero 328 times, it marks it as a '1'. If it decides it has succeeded in guesstimating what the original sector was, it attempts to write that sector to another part of the disk. By doing so, it might be able to recover enough sectors to make the disk readable again - but this is an already failing disk and should be replaced - or it might ruin the data and/or stress the mechanics of the drive to the point where professional data recovery isn't possible. IOW, if you have a failed drive, no backups and need data from it that badly - you shouldn't be risking it to a $90 piece of nearly-scamware that hasn't been updated in 12 years • • • •. Idk where you're getting that from.
Every week he covers another topic in more depth than any other news outlet. Perfect passwords, password haystack, SpinRite 6.1, SQRL, Certificate Revocation Checker, Healthy Sleep Formula, Portable Dog Killer (latest version), Never 10 and many many other tools have been created by him in the last few years.
He does use XP, but he also uses Win 7 and IOS devices. If it's not obvious I have a huge amount of respect for the guy. I will admit that many times he goes overboard on a topic. But he usually catches himself within a week or two and will publicly revise his statement. How many 'news' outlets do that? As for Spinrite?
Yes, I've used it personally, several times. It's worked more often than it hasn't. It does take forever. One trick is to use it in a VM. That speeds it up significantly.
Either way don't be surprised if you run it overnight and still find it running the next day. Every week he covers another topic in more depth than any other news outlet. The issue is that he gives his very personal opinion of how something works or should work.
