Case:Mr. Huang uses an assembly desktop and uses 1TB Hitachi hard disk.In the process of using the computer, intermittent crashes often occur. Suddenly, after a crash, the computer could not enter the system, so I was preparing to reinstall the system, but how could the computer find this hard disk, and then I found that…
After installation, and for a few days, Windows 10 starts by asking you if you like a series of images that appear when you start the computer, then, based on your opinion, a selection of these images keep “welcoming” you. I’d like to know where these images are saved (and how, if it’s a database…
– New Collection of FreeAgent GoFlex for Mac External Drives Are Designed for Mac Enthusiasts While Maintaining Cross-Platform Compatibility
January 4, 2011 – Addressing the personal preferences of the Mac community, Seagate today introduced a new collection of GoFlex™ for Mac external hard drives designed to make it easy for those who use Mac OS X and Time Machine to backup, shuttle, or share their digital content.
These new portable and desktop solutions are HFS+ formatted out-of-the-box, making them fully compatible with Apple Time Machine ® backup software, while maintaining the ability to work across both Microsoft ® Windows ® and Mac OS X computers. A truly unique feature, GoFlex for Mac drives can also be used with computers running Windows by simply downloading an HFS+ driver for Windows from Seagate.com , which will provide full read-write access to the drive from a Windows computer.
Each GoFlex for Mac product comes bundled with FireWire ® 800 and USB 2.0 adapters and cables—the most popular interfaces for Apple computers—but also delivers the flexibility to change the drive’s interface to USB 3.0 or powered eSATA for use with Windows computers. The GoFlex™ interface cables help deliver the speed, performance and connectivity people need, as well as to help safe guard their investments against changing technology. To deliver a fresh look that fits seamlessly with today’s Apple product line, each 2.5-inch, ultra-portable drive in the family features a durable, soft-touch, metallic finish, which is also designed to withstand scratches, fingerprints or other marks incurred from travel. (Comptuer Cables Overview)
The new line-up of GoFlex™ for Mac external drives include:
In addition, each GoFlex for Mac drive can be used with other devices in the GoFlex™ Storage System such as the GoFlex™ Net media sharing device and the GoFlex™ TV HD media player¹. These solutions provide the flexibility to enjoy content on a TV or a mobile device, such as an iPad or smart phone. There is also an option to download additional software for use with all GoFlex for Mac drives that will provide helpful utilities such as a control to turn the activity lights off and a tool to verify that the drive is functioning properly. Each drive in the family also comes backed by a Seagate three-year warranty, helping to protect your investment and providing peace of mind.
“With over 10 billion songs downloaded from the iTunes ® store and Apple’s market share continuing to grow year-over-year, the growing audience for Mac OS X will need external storage to backup all their digital content, Today’s product introduction addresses these current market trends and underscores Seagate’s commitment to delivering flexible, easy-to-use solutions that meet varying customer needs.” – said Darcy Clarkson, vice president of Global Retail Sales and Marketing for Seagate.

I have vdi with quite a number of snapshots taken from it – say, 50 or 70 snapshots.I want to have one plain vdi with a current state. These snapshots take way too much disk space and are not needed as snapshots. I know that if I call VBoxManage clonehd thedisk.vdi thedisk-full.vdi(50-70 times) VBoxManage clonehd…
Case:When the customer uses the computer, the partition is formatted due to the error operation, and the partition data is lost. Solution:Because the data is important, contacting our center for data recovery.Customers do not cause the data to format the hard disk execution formatting operations, and there is no problem with data recovery.After the test,…
Case:After the customer deleted more than 200 photos, more than 500 photos were taken. Solution:In this case, the possibility of covering is very high, but the data is still likely to recover. It is recovered by hand by Winhex. 80%of the data is recovered. Some of them are covered.From the first SEC of the data…

Femto slider
Form factor in which the read/write head is mounted on the small, lightweight femto slider which allows the head to move more quickly from track to track on the disk.
fetch
The process of retrieving data.
FFS
Free-fall sensor. As an added layer of protection, if the drive (or the system it’s in) is dropped while in use, WD’s free-fall sensor detects that the drive is falling and, in less than 200 milliseconds, parks the head off the disks to help prevent damage and data loss.
FireWire 400
FireWire400 supports data transfer rates up to 400 Mb/s.
FireWire 800
FireWire 800 has a maximum data transfer rate of 800Mb/s. It is backward-compatible with FireWire 400 using an optional adapter.

This high-speed serial bus, also known as IEEE 1394, provides a non-proprietary, high-performance method of interconnecting digital devices.
firmware
Permanent instructions and data programmed directly into the circuitry of read-only memory for controlling computer operations.
FIT

flow control
is the process of managing the rate of data transmission between two nodes to prevent a fast sender from outrunning a slow receiver.
form factor
An industry standard term for the physical and external dimensions of a device.
format
A process that prepares a hard drive to store data.
formatted capacity
The actual capacity available to store data in a mass storage device. The formatted capacity is the gross capacity minus the capacity used by overhead (formatting).
FTP
File Transfer Protocol. A network protocol used to transfer data from one computer to another through a network. FTP is a popular choice for exchanging files independent of the operating systems involved.
full-duplex
A communication protocol that permits simultaneous transmission in both directions.
