Steve Gibson developed Spinrite back in the 80's and today it doesn't appear to have competition.
It is the only drive recovery tool that I know of that works at the block and sector level.
How could there be no competition?
@DavidB Yeah, I've needed the EUFI support for 5 years now because Razer support for BIOS boot started failing back then. I like SQRL and all, but if nobody can even implement passkeys correctly, I doubt SQRL will ever get a full implementation.
@DavidB Marketing, 1 guy with 1 tool versus a bunch of guys working in a bigger company where an equivalent tool gets it's functionality rolled into a more general software package. There are other recovery tools out there but they're like one tree hidden in the forest.
@klaatu if you see one let me know. I've looked and everyone starts talking about files it supports. File level not bit level.
