iBored 1.1.10

Beware: This tool lets you mess with your disk contents in a rather unsafe manner: You can easily write over any data on a disk, rendering the entire disk unusable. So you better know what you're doing, especially if you use any "write" operations. And keep backups of your data on other disks.<br /><br /><br />I wrote this tool mainly for my own use. However, I like to share it with those who know what it's good for. If you can't deal with it, don't complain. It's free. Choose it or lose it.<br /><br />OTOH, if you need help with it, or even need improvements, and are willing to pay for my services, get in contact (see end of this document).<br /><br />Features<br /> * Can view disks in custom block sizes.<br /> * Deals gracefully with read errors: You can copy a partially-damaged disk to an image file (bad blocks will become zero-filled in the copy) in order to use recovery tools on the error-free copy then.<br /> * When modifying data, a "journal" file is written to your desktop that contains the previous data of the altered blocks, and it can be used to undo your changes.<br /> * Can view partitions and other subranges as containers with their own start, length and block size.<br /> * Can be re-launched with admin (root) rights to access non-removable disks (Mac OS X only).<br /> * Detects connected iPods, showing their firmware partition contents.<br /> * Can access disks remotely over a network connection.<br /> * Can save a range of blocks to a file and write a file back to disk.<br /> * Has a powerful template system to view and analyse disk structures.<br /> * Can edit MBR and GPT partition tables.<br /> * Can install a PC BIOS bootloader dealing with both MBR and GPT.
