The Disk Imaging Hardware must be capable of the following: All-in-one PCI-E device for data recovery imaging Support of native SATA functions for drive diagnostics and imaging such as PHY and COMRESET Configurable, visual, interactive data recovery imaging environment Extensive drive diagnostics: individual heads, media, PCB, mechanical issues A hardware solution bypassing the computers BIOS Full sector map and metadata stored on destination (or separate configuration) drive Stop/resume imaging at any time Fully configurable multi-pass imaging Drive ready timeout processing Read sector timeout controlled by Software/Hardware reset and power cycle Backwards imaging Validation of data on-the-fly: Hex view, File counters, File System elements Support of drives over 2TB Imaging by selective head Disable SMART subsystem Disable Read Look-Ahead option Multiple methods of bad sector recovery Bit level analysis of corrupted data to filter out the read-write channel noise Imaging only the needed partitions/directories/files Set/Clear HPA Reset DCO settings (with Forensics add-on capability) Power protection for the source drive Adjustable read block size Process each byte in a sector, ignoring error correction codes. Vendor-specific commands to interface with Western Digital, Toshiba, and Hitachi drives Ability to be compatible with USB Add-on, Current-Monitoring Add-on, Network Add-on, and the ATA Extender Add-on. Separate hardware cards for SATA imaging and SAS imaging. Review of this information is being performed by SSC-LANT Code 58520, which aims to conduct objective comparative assessments and validations of commercial Data Recovery Hardware to determine if the solution meets the Governments requirements.
