New Features for Image Rescue 2.0
More flexibility. More peace of mind.In this new version of Image Rescue, most data files can be recovered as well
as images on your memory card using any USB 2.0 or FireWire reader. Any USB, USB 2.0 or FireWire reader can
be used to recover files from any brand CompactFlash card.
Three Different Recovery Modes: High Level Search - Fastest and most convenient way to recover data. It uses
existing file system information on the card to locate and recover deleted images. This mode can recover all data
on the card not just image data. The data will be recovered with original filenames and extensions. This method will
not work if the card has severe file system damage or if the card has been reformatted and thus contains no file
system information.
Low Level Search - Scans the card for image data patterns and recovers lost images even if the file system data is
corrupted or the card has been reformatted. This method takes more time to complete than the High Level Search.
Since it looks for image patterns and the file system data is not available, Image Rescue can not recover the
original image names.
Extensive Search - Performs the most comprehensive search and scans every block of memory attempting to
recover all possible image data on the card. This can often result in leftover image fragments being recovered as
well as complete images.
Card UpdaterThis feature will check for an update to a card's firmware by making a request to Lexar's update
server via the web. The request will be made using the HTTP protocol so that any firewalls will not block the
update. If an update is available a message will be displayed, if there is no update an "up-to-date" message will be
displayed. In the case there is an update, the user can request it to be applied to the card. The firmware will be
downloaded from the server and the card's firmware will be updated.
