Question: How much time does it take to make an Advanced Scan on 100 Gb size HDD?

Answer: Scanning for partition 100 Gb size:

  • Simple Scan - several seconds
  • Advanced Scan - 40 min

                   Scanning for HDD 100 Gb size:

  • Advanced Scan - 50 min
  • Low Level Scan - 4-7 hours

The scanning process estimation time may depends on:

  • Disk condition - the more corrupted sectors the hard disk drive has, the slower the read access for particular area is;
  • Disk usage - the less free space your hard disk has the more time it takes to scan it through;
  • Data fragmentation - the less data is fragmented on the disk the faster scan process can collect all information about files and their condition;


For Low Level Device Scan, the following options may affect scanning process estimation time:

  • Skip Detected partition area. With this option on, the entire partition area can be skipped from further scanning and scan proceeds in next sector where detected partition ends.
    Otherwise, Active@ UNDELETE scans detected partition for lost or corrupted structures and takes more time to perform this task.
  • Scan every sector. With this option on the every sector will be checked for partition signatures and takes more time to perform scanning.
