Ignore bad sector: skip the damaged sectors of source discs while making image files in order to improve efficiency and avoid unexpected abortion caused by bad sectors. This option is applied when the integrity of original data is not strictly required, i.e. making movie DVDs, audio CDs or game DVDs. RAW read: when you back up very important files and require absolute precision of the original data, be sure to select RAW read function as long as your drive supports it (please consult the manual of the drive you use to confirm).
