HDD Regenerator
HDD Regenerator is a disk-repair program that detects and attempts to repair physical bad sectors. It scans drives at the physical level, regardless of file system, and its listed recovery features include corrupted-data recovery. The 2024 edition supports HDD, SSD, and NVMe drives; the 2011 edition lists HDD and partial SSD support. For 2024, the maker lists S.M.A.R.T. support, real-time drive monitoring, LAN remote control, speed tests, 4K sector support, process resume, and multiple-drive support. It can boot from USB flash media in UEFI 64-bit, UEFI x86, or legacy BIOS modes. The maker lists Windows 10 and 11 installation for 2024 and says its bootable media supports any operating system. A free demo can attempt to repair the first bad sector it finds and indicate whether the full version may succeed. HDD Regenerator has no free plan, but does offer a free trial. The 2011 edition costs $49.99, paid once; the 2024 edition costs $89.99, paid once. Both include an unlimited license period and free minor updates.
