OSC-Live is a Linux live OS designed for running OpenSuperClone (a fork of HDDSuperClone). This project is intended to serve as a modern replacement for "HDDLiveCD", the live OS that shipped with the original HDDSC project.

OSC is an advanced Linux -based cloning and imaging tool intended for data recovery from faulty disks. It creates sector-by-sector clones or images that can be used in conjunction with other file recovery software. OSC employs a multipass imaging approach, an intelligent skipping algorithm, and various passthrough and direct I/O commands for drive communication. These features greatly increase the effectiveness of reading faulty and unstable devices, and reduce the amount of additional wear the drives are subjected to.
