RawDisk
Description
RawDisk 3.0 was available to download from the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this software available. The program's installer is commonly called RawDisk.exe.
According to the results of the Google Safe Browsing check, the developer's site is safe. Despite this, we recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus software. This software was originally produced by EldoS Corporation. The software lies within System Utilities, more precisely System Optimization. The following versions: 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users.
From the developer:
RawDisk allows you to implement an application accessing Windows 7, Windows Vista or XP disk directly. The sectors can be read or written from user-mode processes, thus going around direct access ban imposed by the OS.
RawDisk allows access to files that are already opened or have restricted access security setting. This significantly simplifies implementation of backup applications.
You may want to check out more software, such as KDE Pim/Platform-independent, Network Registry Search or Yenka Technology Add-On, which might be related to RawDisk.
