Before you try to rebuild your hard drive with DiskWarrior, you may want to consider salvaging your data with Data Rescue II. DiskWarrior may be able to rebuild your disk's directory, but it may make matters worse.
 
I need to buy some software to repair a hfs+ usb hard drive and after googling around diskwarrior and techtools pro seem like the best 2 but which one should i get?

In a critical situation, I've rescued my files with DiskWarrior. The program isn't cheap, but worth the money.
