LOL. I know the deal, I think I've been on this list since it was
created and have used YDL since before the "gone home" release ;)
(which never happened btw). Started with Champion Server 1.0
something or other and have lurked for a long time ;)
Glad to lend a hand where needed. Each tool has it's own function,
and I'm a strong believer that no one tool is the "best", it always
depends on the job at hand. There are some that I may try before
others, but that's usually defined by need and not just
preference ;) At least now there are options! It wasn't always the
case :(

Thanks Mark for your comment regarding Techtools. I thought I was
outnumbered, here. All that grating, gnashing of teeth and all...
another voice, yours, is sincerely appreciated. :-) Things can be
rough here, but overall they are nice people.... really!

Just wanted to chime in on a few things from this thread..
[truncated]
Techtool uses it's own hfs/hfs+ repair tools to do the dirty work
(and not fsck, which I bet drive genius does -- probably why
neither fsck or drive genius could fix the damage). Again the now
gone Norton Disk Doctor had yet another set of repair tools.
These apps take a different approach than Diskwarrior, in fact the
opposite. They look at the catalogs and then try to match up all
the files in the filesystem to them, repairing things as found and
needed, and they do a muc more in depth scan of the files
themselves and rarely touch the catalogs. have you ever seen the
screen in Disk Doctor that dumped you into the "filesaver" mode?
That basically meant that the catalogs were corrupted beyond
repair and it did the diskwarrior type thing to try and find any
files that were intact...
