As of recent my memorex disk have started dying on me!!!!!!!!
I stick a disk that I have been using periodically for a year into
the disk drive and am ask whether I wish to eject or initialize it!!!!!!

I have been using MacTools to recover the files, but it does a pretty
sloppy job of it.  Recently MacTools 4.51 wouldn't even read a disk
whereas MacTools 3.0 recovered it without any questions.

I was hoping that someone would have a suggestion about any other program
that may be used to recover files from a bad disk.

thanks in advance.
