Hello.
The drive I keep my movies and music on is dying. From bad sectors, I suppose, since filesystem repairs don't help at all.
I'm not trying to find out the nature of the problem : I just want to backup everything to a new drive !
Because of the nature of the files (audio and video streams), it's ok if some are corrupt: even in bad shape, they are still mostly playable.
However, no file manager that I could find would copy corrupt files. The copy always aborts when an error is...
How to copy files from a corrupt HD and ignore all errors ?
