Currently only the Windows version of R‑Studio can directly work with several DeepSpar Disk Imager™ hardware devices for data recovery.

DeepSpar Disk Imager™ (DDI) is an HDD imaging device specifically built for data recovery from hard drives with hardware issues. It greatly increases imaging speed, accuracy, and integrity of data retrieved from such drives.

RapidSpar™ is a specialized data recovery device intended to extract data from problematic drives. Failing (source) and target drives are connected to the device, and it autonomously copies data from the source to the target in a way that maximizes the amount of successfully extracted data and minimizes possible damage to the source drive. The copy parameters can be quickly changed during this process directly on the device. Then the recovery software can read data from the target drive
