s2pdump shall suport an optional fault tolerant mode, where it reports read errors but does not terminate on an error. Instead, it shall try to read as many readable sectors from a drive as possible. If in a sequence of sectors (s2pdump reads several sectors in a single read operation) a sector in the sequence is not readable, the other sectors of this sequence shall still be read.
With this feature s2pdump can be used as a tool to recover data from drives where not all sectors are accessible anymore.
