depends. can try copying it to another disk, and constamtly retry the failed tracks in different drives untill you get a new working version from all the good reads.

or if its a dos disk , try disksalve to get as much of the disk files as possible and see if the rest is replacable.

failing that, if its a popular disk you may be able to find a disk image of it online anyway

Both disks Zoned, I haven't had a chance to go through all my CU disks and rename them yet but the ADF seems OK.
