Maybe it depends on adaptors but I have never had good results running ddrescue on a drive connected via USB. The drive/adaptor/whatever seems to get into a state where reading always returns junk data (copies of previous stuff?) and no error. So, ddrescue does the job but the output file is useless. Connecting the drive via IDE/SATA works massively better IME. YMMV.
