DiskWarrior 3 for X

AltSoft DiskWarrior has been one of my essential applications these last few years, and has saved my day (and that of my friends) on more than one occasion.

I was pleased to read the pre-order announcement of DiskWarrior 3 which offers significant improvements on its predecessor:

• Mac OS X native directory repair
• dramatic speed improvements
• supports file journaling
• Mac OS X RAIDs
• full Unicode support
• conforms to Apple's security standardsv
• uses Mac OS X's native memory model
• rebuilds directories on disks as large as 2,000 gigabytes (2 terabytes)

The $40 upgrade is available only on a Mac OS X bootable CD. (No information is available for full version pricing or the ship date.)
