absolute disk read write

[Guest]

Is it possible to read/write sectores in any hard drive? I have some examples
from the net in vc++ but is there a simple way in c#? Thanks

The ideia is to do a disk search of a pattern that identifies pictures for
examples and by it's size, save all those sectores/clusters to another disc
drive. Very usefull if a virus like some that are in the wild make my files
to size 0!!!
I have done some sector editing with some programas like winhex that is a
disk editor but it is a lot of work by hand...

you have to use interop/pinvoke to call the api function.
see www.pinvoke.net for the appropriate method signature in c#.
