Jim, the next time you need to adjust the interleave on a drive, use
SpinRite. It does transfer rate testing and will come up with the best

Does not SpinRite have a option to also reformat tracks with your
data on it?
Yes it does. Does a great job.
And when it doesn't do a great job, I have found that Norton Utilities
6.0's CALIBRAT works well. (Spinrite does some odd things on a few
controllers where there is a 10-second pause and head recalibration for
every single low-level format of a track)
