Code:
ddrescue -d -r3 /dev/sdc CIC_Drive.img logfile
The last argument "logfile" is optional. See ddrescue manual for more information.
I used kingston 240gb while it is so cheap on amazon currently, my iDrive boots into navigation so much faster. Now I have a drive backup image and I am not going to worry drive fails in my CIC anymore. |
Do you notice any startup speed increase with music on the HD? Mine is hit and miss, sometimes it's almost instant, but most of the time it takes about 45 seconds for the music to start up. Not sure what it is as I didn't really time the music in the OEM drive. My expectation was music would be near instant, similar to Nav starting up, but that's not the case.
