About Techtool Pro
If your Mac is running slowly, crashing, or just generally misbehaving, the problem may be your disk. Both solid-state and rotational hard drives can be the most error-prone components in your Mac. Slow performance, sudden application crashes, and even computer crashes can be attributed to a malfunctioning hard drive. If you suspect a hard drive problem, it will be one of two things. Volume structures damage or physical disk damage. Volume structures damage (or directory damage for recovering Windows users) refers to the data stored on a disk that keeps track of your photos, movies, music, and other files on the disk. The volume structures test in Techtool Pro can be used to identify this damage, while the Volume Rebuild tool can be used to repair it. If the volume structures test doesn’t find any problems, but you’re still thinking it’s a disk problem, then it might be the hardware of the disk itself. In this case, either the SMART check or the surface scan test can help.

DiskWarrior
Everything just disappeared after your Mac went haywire. All your work documents. The music you most enjoy. The movie of your kid's first steps. It's your life and it's gone. Don't panic! DiskWarrior will recover your documents, photos, music and any other files when disaster strikes and you lose access to your files. Your Mac may even tell you that you need to "initialize disk" which would erase your entire disk! Perhaps you've tried to open a document and all that happens is a color wheel that spins and spins and spins. Or your Mac no longer starts up. Or your external hard disk no longer appears. Or your music won't play. Or every time you look through your photos, your Mac crashes. These might indicate directory damage or even a pending drive failure. With a single click, DiskWarrior reads the damaged directory and finds all salvageable files and folders, and builds a new error-free, optimized directory for you to use.
