As somebody researching automated reverse engineering, I would love for these to alongside the uncracked originals. While the text files document what it was doing, the ori isn't there to replicate the process.

There are file formats which record the raw head flux from spinning across the drives, which should archive any goofy drive-munging scheme employed.

That might work for most but not all schemes; spiral encoding encodes data while the stepper motor is moving, so you'd need some very fine-resolution imaging and some very accurate hardware simulation to make everything work properly.
