2 Recommended mac disk repair tools

I no longer like to use norton, and beside applejack and mainmenu (http://www.santasw.com/) I think the following two apps are indispensable, by all means use the disk utility on your install disk but it leaves much to be desired.

The first app I like to use is one that been around for a while in different forms and it is techtool pro


“MicroMat Techtool Pro 4 Universal (Mac)” (MicroMat)

and the second is diskwarrior:


“Diskwarrior 4.0 (Intel Mac)” (Alsoft)

both of these are tried and tested and have rescued me many a time from a mac disaster....always have at least one of them around.  Main menu also mentioned above is now my cron and maintenace tool of choice (for deleting prefs and fixing permissions, getting rid of old cache etc).
