	Emsa Disk Check: CD/DVD/HDD Disk Diagnostics Utility
		Emsa Disk Check is a dual-purpose utility, for disk checking (prescan and full disk reading) and also benchmarking.
		What it does, is scanning/reading the entire contents of a disk (CD, DVD or hard drive; or even floppy) and show any read errors that may appear, but also show drive speed information, progress statistics etc. It was designed with simplicity in mind, but usefulness for the user.
		Tip: You may want to try reinserting a disk and performing more than one check, for more accurate results of benchmarking, as different reads of same disk may be performed at different speeds by the same drive.

	Disk Utility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Disk Utility is the name of a utility created by Apple Computer for performing disk-related tasks in Mac OS X.
		Disk Utility functions may also be accessed from the Mac OS X command line with the command: diskutil.
		Disk Copy was used for creating and mounting disk image files, and Disk Utility was used for formatting, partitioning, verifying and repairing file structures.

	Disk Copy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Disk Copy was the default utility for handling disk images in 7 though Mac OS X 10.2 (Usable in System Software 6 as well).
		In later versions of Mac OS X it has been replaced by DiskImageMounter for mounting the images and Disk Utility for creating them.
		Disk Utility — Creates disk images in Mac OS X 10.3 and later.

	Repair Disk Utility's Permissions
		The reason for this is that Apple has changed the way Disk Utility works in order to prevent this catch-22 situation from occurring in the first place.
		The Disk Utility executable handles most of the superficial things, such as when you resize the main window, or navigate through the menu commands.
		Disk Utility Agent is the part of Disk Utility that handles the actual verification and repair of your disk, and verification and repair of the permissions of your disk, and so it therefore requires root-level privileges.

		After launching Disk Utility, the application opens to display a list of your disk resources in a pane on the left side of the window, as shown in Figure 3.56.
		Disk images have become a common and convenient way to distribute software for Mac OS X. Rather than create an archived folder, developers write their applications to a virtual disk that is loaded into memory when used.
		Although most options for Disk Utility are found in the toolbar or via controls in the various panes, two additional features are located in the File menu.

	PowerMax: I love Disk Utility (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		My favorite Apple application is an often-overlooked program called "Disk Utility." Found in the "Utilities" folder located inside the "Applications" folder, it has been included in every version of Mac OS X. As OS X has advanced, so has Disk Utility; becoming much more than the hard drive formatting application it used to be.
		All of those things are great features, but with Disk Utility 10.4 there is a world of additional features far more useful than just maintaining a hard drive.
		Disk Utility is only one of the jewels found in the "Utilities" folder.

	Problem with the Disk Utility: Mac OS X 10.0 - 10.3.9 System: MacFixItForums
		After this is done and the computer is rebooted, it should pop up a msg saying the disk in the drive is unreadable, (ignore) or (initialize), and 'initialize' will launch disk utility to format it.
		Disk Utility should not crash this time though, since it can't attempt to mount damaged partitions or load corrupted drivers.
		Disk Warrior (and I bet norton) has a hacked down variation of fsck_hfs on its bootable CD that will "give up easily" so that the CD will eventually continue to boot up and you can repair the drive.

	Applelinks - The MACINTOSH Portal!
		There are several ways to check for and repair disk problems in 0S X. The most intuitively familiar to users migrating from the legacy Mac OS is Disk Utility, an 0S X analog of the venerable Disk First Aid program that's been around since at least System 6.
		Unfortunately, this utility in OS X has a major shortcoming: it cannot check the disk its installed on.
		The Disk Utility window will open, with a field on the left showing mounted volumes, and a tabbed field on the right allowing you to choose from various verification and repair options.

	Electric Pi Journal: Report on Another Hard Disk Repair Utility
		Before that he worked on Public Utilities, a disk repair program that won the MacUser Magazine Editor's Choice Award, and on Sedit, a low-level disk editor." I quote all that because the guy writes like he knows from experience.
		In the article, he compared the capabilities of various disk repair programs to repair various hard disk problems that he managed, with the use of special tools, to inflict upon a real hard disk.
		Try Apple's Disk Utility first -- since it is free and isn't likely to create any additional problems -- and if Disk Utility fails, hand the damage over to Disk Warrior, which has the best chance of fixing whatever ails your hard disk.

		It does seem that Toast is the only game in town but with the release of Panther and now Tiger OS systems, disk burning from the Finder and Disk Utility has been greatly improved.
		Even though the cost of blank disks have dropped to well under a dollar apiece, it makes no sense to burn a small file onto a blank, leaving most of the disk empty.
