I asked google "find file at certain sector" and found some answers, for
Windows, ntfs.

http://superuser.com/questions/97823/how-do-i-determine-what-file-occupie=
s-a-given-sector

apparently "nfi.exe" does it, but there are more answers.


http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/272990-32-identify-file-sectors

can't read it, goes blank, after displaying some content. Mentions seatoo=
ls.



Google "find file at certain sector linux"

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Identify_damaged_files

This is a good article. I think the one I was thinking of previously.


Another article mentions "https://sourceforge.net/projects/ddrutility/"
for ntfs. http://www.ubuntu-rescue-remix.org/Version12-04
