For me, TTP4 will sit on the shelf until the next update. DiskWarrior 3 is
my weapon of choice for now. It is unbelievably fast and simple. I have only
read of one or two problems from people who use it regularly.

So, between running fsck and DW3 and occasionally the Apple Hardware
checking CD, the bases are pretty well covered.
