All except three of those bad sectors are even worse on your "backup" disk.
Don't worry, I've still got a few tricks up my sleeve, but this one will be a tough nut to crack.
In fact, I had tried only one of the remaining three 5ΒΌ-inch drives before getting the KryoFlux set up for the PowerStyx disk. (More about that in the other thread.)
Just because that particular drive gave the best result so far with the Catweasel, it doesn't necessarily mean that it will perform better than all the others on the KryoFlux.
In fact, the unique characteristics of each disk drive give significant variations in performance with different controllers, so that it may even still be possible to recover some of these bad sectors on a PC running ReadADF or the Registered version of Disk2FDI!
