Great tutorial. I prefer to use the command line tool, but this is great got folks are just getting into Linux. Thank for the explanation about the map file at the end too.
Excellent question. One option to try is -R to read the drive in reverse; for some reason this gets by a lot of stubborn areas. Another thing to try is the -a to set the minimum rate for reads in good areas. Perhaps experiment with values from 1M to 5M. The theory here is that you grab as much as you can off the drive first then let it go back and work on the trouble areas on a second pass so another option to try would be -c to adjust the clusters to copy at a time to 1024 or larger (default is 128).

What is the best option for a slow reading disk. There are no bad sectors on the disk but a few slow sectors.
