Because ATATool makes structural modifications directly to a drive's firmware and geometric profiles, improper usage can cause sudden, catastrophic data loss. If an HPA or DCO is shrunk over an active file system, it can clip existing partitions, mangle the master boot record (MBR/GPT), and render entire operating systems unbootable. Data verification and full backup replication should always be executed prior to running any ATATool command. Scans and lists all detected, directly connected ATA
