Final Work | Drevitalize 410

Feature proposal — "Smart Revive" for DRevitalize 4.10 Final

Key functions

  1. Auto-Scan & Risk Classification

    • Quick non-destructive scan (SMART read, surface map, firmware probe).
    • Classify drive into Risk Levels: Info, Low, Medium, High, Critical.
    • Show single-line recommendation (e.g., "Safe to attempt repair" or "Clone first — high data risk").

  2. One-Click Clone (if risk ≥ Medium)

    • Create a sector-by-sector image to user-chosen target (file, device, or network share).
    • Verify checksums, allow pause/resume, and show ETA and progress.
    • Option: sparse imaging to skip unreadable sectors and log them.

  3. Staged Repair Workflow

    • Stage 1 — Non-destructive fixes: file-system check (read-only preview), bad-block remapping (software-only), firmware-safe commands.
    • Stage 2 — Conservative reparative actions: file-system repair with backup, metadata rebuild, partition table repair.
    • Stage 3 — Aggressive actions (user must confirm after clone): low-level format, head parking commands, force reallocation.
    • Each stage shows expected risks and reversibility; allow stepwise approval.

  4. Recovery Assistant

    • Guided data-extraction module that chains tools: raw file carving, file-system-aware recovery, and prioritized file list (by size/type/date).
    • Preview recovered files where possible and allow exporting selected items.

  5. Hardware Interaction Modes

    • Safe Mode: software-only, never issues commands known to risk hardware.
    • Advanced Mode: allows firmware-level operations and vendor-specific utilities (requires user confirmation and vendor profile).
    • Expert Mode: full access with command history and scripting.

  6. Audit & Rollback

    • Full action log with timestamps, commands, checksum of copied data, and before/after SMART snapshots.
    • Snapshot "restore points" for metadata changes to allow rollback where feasible.

  7. User Interface & UX

    • Dashboard: drive health, risk level, recommended first action.
    • Wizard with clear decisions and single-click default path.
    • Advanced log viewer, and an exportable recovery report (PDF/JSON).
    • Contextual help explaining terms and risks in plain language.

  8. Safety & Limits

    • Default: require a verified clone before any destructive operation.
    • Built-in timeouts and throttle for SATA/USB to reduce mechanical stress.
    • Fail-safes: auto-stop if read-error rate spikes significantly.

  9. Integrations

    • Support for common image formats (dd, E01, AFF).
    • Optional network target (SMB, NFS, SFTP).
    • Export log to CSV/JSON for forensic tools.
    • Plugin hooks for vendor utilities.

  10. Telemetry & Privacy

  • Local-only logs by default; any optional upload must be explicit and anonymized.

Phase 4: Final Documentation & Pass/Fail

  • Mark defects with permanent marker or grease pencil.
  • Compare against acceptance criteria (e.g., no linear cracks >1/16″ in critical areas).
  • Clean developer off with water or Drevitalize remover after inspection.
