This app lets you burn a CD or DVD by dragging and dropping files or folders to the main window, you can use sessions so multiple burns can be done in the same disc (CD only). It also has the ability to erase a CD or DVD.
Do you have a corrupt hard drive or one that no longer mounts? Are other tools failing to even recognize your bad drive? Data Rescue II recovers files from a problem hard drive. Some other utilities may cause more damage to your hard drive and files by trying to 'fix' the problem, instead of focusing on recovering your files, as does Data Rescue II -- don’t use a repair utility until you've safely recovered your important files over to a safe location.
