Years ago I bought Spinrite. Past the 30 day return policy I was disappointed to learn that it was limited to 2TB HDDs. At that time most of my HDDs were larger. I asked about an upgrade and was told "Real Soon Now." Years ago. I asked for a refund and was told (paraphrasing) "you took too long to determine that Spinrite doesn't meet your needs."
Back in the day before integrated drive electronics, Spinrite was very useful for adjusting the sector interleave to improve disk performance. With drive electronics and management firmware improvements, Spinrite was useless.

That's the worst kind of gaslighting.
