    I’m waiting for the disk to stop clicking before I back it up. Any day now!

      Just last week I did a drive clone for somebody who’s disk reported a total runtime of over 9 years. The SMART stats only reported one pending sector and long spin up time but it was making noises that said otherwise.

      The clone completed with only three I/O errors.

        You read my mind! Now help me read this dead mechanical drive, would you?
