System halts during boot
I made a home video (created using Pinnacle Studio 10), and due to a hard drive failure lost all the original files downloaded off the camcorder. Will DVDShrink or similar split it into legitimate VOBs? I would try it myself except that the file is on another computer that isn't isn't accessible to me at the

Split hard drive (OS X Tiger)
Get a 500GB FireWire drive and dedicate the internal drive to non-media files. Or even better, ignore the internal drive completely. One of the easiest (as compared to cheapest) performance upgrades for a mini is to boot from an external FW drive. You have more performance, more space and less heat.

User Experiences with Data Pump Versus Legacy EXP/IMP
If you are trying to make a complete backup of your entire system it might be better to use a program like Drive Image from PowerQuest. DI is quite easy to use and can be configured to split the backup image into smaller files as I mentioned above. However I don't think DI can put the backup on the same hard drive

splitting a hard drive
My hard drive came with a split hard drive: c/drive with 2 gigs and d/drive with 6 gigs. Why did Micron separate the drives this way. What is the logic for this arrangement.

splitting IDE bus for mixed 33/100 drives
My hard drive is split (on delivery) into 2 partitions , the Vista (C:) drive (about 30 Gb) and the Data (E:) (about 70Gb). At present the E drive is empty (I have never used it) , the C drive is about 80% full. 1) why is the Data partition named E: rather than D: ? Because your CD/DVD drive is probably D:\.

Proposal for "proper" durable fsync() and fdatasync()
The reason for hard drive pagefiles (virtual memory) is that it's treated by the system as "extra" RAM when the system runs low on real RAM. Hard drive burst rates are in the neighborhood of 100 -133 MB/sec for short bursts (ATA100, ATA, 133), and average transfer rates are much slower, but even old PC 100

hard drive partitions - Thanks
Probably copy all files from your D: to your C: and then delete your D:, and use the resize to expand your C: to the entire drive. Sometimes hard drive manufacturers provide similar utilities, or it's possible you could find a free version. Be careful though, if your master boot record (MBR) gets messed up,

Split folder icon? Mystery?
Some of the reasons for partitioning: - Freeing space: for example, if a two gigabyte hard drive is divided into four separate partitions, instead of treated as a single drive, you'll gain about an extra 40 megabytes of free space if you're using the standard Windows filesystem (FAT32).

The first condition is during hard drive spinup. Some drives now, take 2.5A from 12V, during drive spinup. 7 * 2.5A = 17.5A for the first 10 seconds, from whatever rail And so much 12V rating, you could run a bunch more hardware from it. http://www.pcpower.com/downloads/specs_3827.pdf The connector split on the
