never heard of this file system

[frog707]

Con job

Today I learned that I cannot use a subdirectory named "con" in a cross-platform project, because "con" is a reserved filename in NTFS.

The sad thing is, I'm old enough to know *why* "con" is a reserved filename: for compatibility MS-DOS, where it stood for console input/output. If you wanted to print the contents of a file to the MS-DOS console, you typed a command like "C:> COPY FILE.TXT CON".

learning how the silly numbers in the computer work together to build up the whole system is so fun:)

Qual'è la differenza fra FAT32 - exFAT e NTFS

In questo articolo voglio aiutarvi a fare chiarezza sui principali file System di Windows, parleremo di FAT32 – exFAT e NTFS, ora cercherò di spiegarvi le principali differenze, i vantaggi e svantaggi di ogni file System. Introduzione FAT32 è più vecchio ma offre una compatibilità quasi universale con diversi sistemi operativi e dispositivi, rendendolo ideale per unità flash e unità…

also share your names with me I'm curious :3

down below is a heartfelt sob story about my favorite hard drive and also reason why I did the poll

For the longest time I only had one external drive containing everything. It was an old 256GB drive that I just named "BACKUP".

When I got my SSD I took out the old hard drive and used that as my main backup source. Because it had more storage I named it "BACKUP EXTENDED".

That drive got corrupted when I was in rehab because some guy named Kevin borrowed it for movies and used in a micro usb phone cable instead of the real one that was right on top of the drive.

So BACKUP EXTENDED was no more. A few months later I tried some usb partitioning tools (GParted my beloved) because I had some computer issues and thought I try to revive that old drive again and it fucking worked. From that day on my backup drive was known as "THE UNDEAD" (I've also been a huge Hollywood Undead fan at that time).

That name stuck with me, even after I accidentally formatted the whole drive when installing Arch, It persisted through each repartitioning session.

When I fucked up my partitioning table so hard it took several tries of fiddling to get the drive to work again, I renamed my trusty old drive to UNDEAD REVIVED because, well, I had to revive it again. Is it really undead at this point? Or is a revived thing alive again. What is a revived zombie, really? Maybe that's something for another poll...

A few weeks ago I got a few terabytes of storage for cheap and the biggest drive I got right now is 3TB. It's my new backup drive and I called it "UNDEAD EXTENDED",

But I've reached a point where having only one partition for everything isn't enough anymore. I have a macbook for work which can't write to NTFS partitions, so I had to create an exFAT for shared storage. That doesn't allow me to symlink things though, and I still need to have a Windows backup that I can just attach to any PC and boot from it, so I also need an NTFS drive. But Windows does things to the NTFS drive so that sometimes I have to sudo mount the partition which is really annoying and kinda sucks. I only use Linux on my main machine and just want to keep some of its files somewhere without other systems interacting with it at all so now I also have a ext4 partition for system backup and some games.

So, my trusty UNDEAD* hard drive that I lovingly kept and revived and extended and revived again, which stores everything that I own and love and need is now cut up into pieces and none of the partitions feel like the drive that it once was that makes me sad.

I grew very attached to that hard drive and to that name but even when the physical drive is still next to me it feels like I've outgrown it. I've had my Undead drive when I was at my lowest and it was a part of my digital life up until now. I've had iterations of it for almost half of my life. If that thing could talk, it would scream.

So, how did I name my partitions instead now?

I've named my exFAT partition "CYBERSLUT" the way it plugs into any computer and gets manhandled by it, it made me smile when I made the tough decision to retire the undead naming scheme.

My NTFS drive is called "WHYDOS" because I always ask myself why I still keep up with Windows sometimes, and I just recreated my ext4 partition that I named "PLAYGROUND", because it's only used for Wine bottles and some steam games so far, so they don't take up most of my limited SSD space.

Are you running Windows?

Ever delete a file, empty your recycling bin, and go WELL SHIT and wish you hadn't done that?

..want to snoop around an NTFS file system and see what's been deleted then possibly recover that information?

You need Kickass Undelete!

It recovers deleted files! Usually! For free! Stupidly easy!

i'm in a digital forensics class rn, and i'm in a section about NTFS system files, and i've probably typed $MFT as $MTF like 40 times already

[gotouhitori]

Thanks for the info about dual booting. This might be a dumb question, but if I have two internal drives, and I place Linux (Mint probably) on the C: drive alongside windows, will I have access to the additional drive if I boot into Linux OOB, or will I also have to partition that?

Yes, you will have access to the additional drive. I'm not sure if Mint will include the driver package for the NTFS file system by default, so you may need to install that manually.

Ok so I was having a really hard time trying to figure out what went wrong with my SD card while trying to homebrew my wii

My friend figured it out so I'm posting it both for myself and anyone else that gets a No FAT device found! error on Nintendont

My formatting was incorrect, and I say this knowing NOTHING about how it works but here's how I was able to correctly format it and do it again without fail on the same type of card. It is a SanDisk ImageMate, notably the cheapest card at Walmart (hehe)

How I did it:

I used HPUSB to format to FAT32

Then from Windows format the file system to NTFS (default allocation was 4k so I left it) instead of exFAT (which was my default)

Then in guiformat pick 32768 as cluster size

and that's it! It ended up being a really easy solution but I was having SUCH a hard time trying to figure out what to do. I literally don't know what any of this means so if this doesn't help then I'm sorry! but I also cannot help. I also don't know how much the allocation numbers matter. I just know this worked for me and I'm honestly posting this for me because I WILL forget if I ever have to do it again

Dopo anni passati a lottare con i tempi di attesa dei dischi meccanici tradizionali, ho finalmente deciso di fare il salto verso un NAS all-flash. La scelta è ricaduta sul TerraMaster F4-SSD, un dispositivo che promette di rivoluzionare il workflow di chi, come me, lavora quotidianamente con file RAW pesanti e progetti video 4K. L'idea di avere un sistema storage completamente basato su SSD, silenzioso e performante, mi ha convinto a investire in questa soluzione che si posiziona in una fascia di mercato ancora relativamente di nicchia. Logicamente al momento il top a nostro avviso è il Terramaster F8 SSD PLUS. La promessa di TerraMaster è chiara: offrire ai creator 4K e ai fotografi professionisti un'alternativa ai classici NAS con dischi rotanti, eliminando i colli di bottiglia tipici dello storage tradizionale. Con un prezzo di 569 euro su Amazon Italia (venduto direttamente da TerraMaster EU Store), questo dispositivo si propone come una soluzione accessibile per chi vuole fare il salto verso lo storage all-flash senza svuotare il portafoglio. Durante le mie due settimane di test intensivi, ho sottoposto l'F4-SSD a carichi di lavoro reali che rappresentano il quotidiano di uno studio fotografico moderno: dall'ingest di migliaia di RAW, all'editing multicamera in DaVinci Resolve, passando per backup Time Machine e container Docker per la gestione delle foto. Design e qualità costruttiva Il primo impatto con il TerraMaster F4-SSD è sorprendente: le dimensioni compatte (225 × 136 × 166 mm) lo rendono incredibilmente discreto sulla scrivania. Il peso di soli 2,2 kg senza dischi testimonia l'attenzione alla portabilità, caratteristica non scontata in un NAS a 4 vani. Lo chassis in alluminio spazzolato non è solo un vezzo estetico: contribuisce attivamente alla dissipazione del calore, elemento cruciale quando si lavora con SSD ad alte prestazioni. L'F4-SSD utilizza slot M.2 interni per gli SSD NVMe, accessibili rimuovendo il pannello posteriore con una semplice vite thumbscrew. I quattro slot sono chiaramente contrassegnati (PCIe 3.0 x1 o x2) e l'installazione richiede solo il fissaggio con le piccole viti M.2 incluse. TerraMaster fornisce alcune viti di ricambio nel caso se ne perdesse qualcuna durante l'installazione. La qualità costruttiva è eccellente, con un telaio interno in metallo che garantisce rigidità strutturale. Lo slot aggiuntivo M.2 per la cache NVMe è facilmente accessibile e ben posizionato per garantire un'adeguata dissipazione termica. La ventola singola da 80 mm PWM è posizionata sul retro e, grazie al controllo intelligente della velocità, mantiene temperature ottimali senza diventare invadente. Il pannello frontale minimalista presenta solo i LED di stato essenziali: alimentazione, attività di rete e stato dei quattro drive. Sul retro troviamo la dotazione di porte: due connettori 2,5 GbE Intel I225-V con supporto per link aggregation, due porte USB-C 10 Gb/s e una USB-A 5 Gb/s. La scelta di includere due porte di rete veloci dimostra l'attenzione di TerraMaster verso l'uso professionale del dispositivo.

btw, if you are shopping for desktop computers, be sure to look into the given components within the chassis (be it prebuilt or custom) on websites OTHER than the manufacturer. A lot of them are deliberately misleading and some companies, particularly Apple and Intel, are known for inflating their first party stats by upwards of 20% at times. Also check the chassis to ensure that it has proper fucking airflow so your components don't fry themselves. A lot of cheap cases have TERRIBLE airflow.

Check the fucking reviews for your components.

As for what I do to keep my Windows computer running efficiently, I've found that Win11 is absolutely dogshit on AMD systems, and I disable a LOT of the Microsoft bloatware. I used to do this in the Windows Registry but I don't reccomended that unless you know what you're doing since you can VERY easily trash your installation that way

Also that's literally not what formatting a USB drive is. Formatting a USB drive is when you... format the file system (ie: NTFS, exFAT, FAT32, etc)

Me: oh yeah, if you think school photography is hard now, try imagining doing this with film.

The new girl: what’s film?

Me: … film. Like… film that goes in a film camera.

New girl: what’s that mean?

Me: … before cameras were digital.

New girl: how did you do it before digital?

Me:… with film? I haven’t had enough coffee for this conversation
