Weaknesses:
Deep scan speed: Slow compared to modern standards (e.g., 40–80 minutes for a 250 GB drive). No RAW photo recovery enhancements (lacked advanced codecs for corrupted JPEGs). No bootable media creation – could not recover from unbootable systems without removing the drive. No RAID support – could not reconstruct or scan RAID arrays. File name preservation: Often recovered files with generic names (file001.jpg) after deep scan.
