iBored

iBored is not a pure hex editor but rather a disk block editor, which also can be used to edit files in hex. Simply drag a file into iBored's "Disks" window and then double click it to edit the file as if it was a disk of sectors. Not idea, but sometimes that's what you want, e.g. if you want to edit a disk image file.

Pro
Remote operation

Can be used to remotely assist in viewing and repairing disks over the internet: iBored has to be started on both computers, and then one can connect to the other and view and modify its data (after getting permissions from the target side).
