{{Infobox tool details}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Describe the what the tool does, focusing on it's digital preservation value. Keep it factual. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ddrescue is a data recovery tool that copies data from one file or block device to another.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ddrescue attempts to recover data by enabling multiple retries and splitting recovery into five phases which it has termed: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* copying, &lt;br /&gt;
* trimming, &lt;br /&gt;
* sweeping, &lt;br /&gt;
* scraping, &lt;br /&gt;
* retrying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More information about these phases can be found in the [https://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html manual].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Additional utilities ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Software that supports ddrescue outputs or generates ddrescue inputs include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ddrescueview - A graphical viewer for ddrescue mapfiles.&lt;br /&gt;
Ddrutility - A set of tools designed to work with ddrescue to aid with data recovery.&lt;br /&gt;
Partclone - Partition Software able to create domain mapfiles for ddrescue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== User Experiences ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Add hotlinks to user experiences with the tool (eg. blog posts). These should illustrate the effectiveness (or otherwise) of the tool. Use a bullet list. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
