Delphi read sectors from disk

The file over the disk is saved in an array type so to read the file you need such a program that will help you in reading that array and you will be able to manipulate your data.

Hi Donal,

You can do this by many ways. You can use software for reading or you can read it by yourself by using some techniques of file reading. You can create a file under sector 0 in c and read it.
