Could ePSXe help with broken disk? (FF9)

I'm new to these forums...but a while ago I bought FF9 used (note the word used) from Gamestop or someplace...turns out the 3rd disk was corrupted and it wouldn't load. If I burned it to the computer...would it help fix it? I'm reading up on all this stuff with PSX and its very confusing so I want to know if this will even help me or not.

I believe you can run it if it is damaged. Download the free .mds maker "Alcohol 120%," set it to ignore errors and to do advanced sector scanning. Unless the CD is damaged beyond all repair, it should work.

Be warned, the process can take up to 4 hours with an exceptionally damaged CD.
