File System

Hi, For some reasons (very old database engine that does not allow replicating nor anything) which I can't change, I need a workaround to lower the number of connections to my main database server. So I want to keep only my integrated management software with read/write access to the database...

How do I check for file system errors in a Debian based Linux system? I'm running Kali Linux and the problem is I'm unable to run the fsck tool in the root partition.

Its File system is exFAT by default (which I THINK is what's best because it allows for higher allocation unit sizes) and I will be transferring large files on it. It goes from 8192 kilobytes all the way up to 32,768 kilobytes.

Hi, I'm considering to buy WD MyBook 4TB (Prod. #: WDBBGB0040HBK-SESN) as my backup drive, but the drive as default formatted with exFAT. My question is, since my OS is Linux Mint, is it safe (and will it work on my PC) if I formatted the drive with NTFS, since I want it work also on my TV...

This is long, because I have tried a number of things without success, but the summary is that I am unable to take control of some directories and their contents on a drive that belongs to me and that is installed in a system that belongs to me. OS: Windows 10 Professional, latest build AV...

Okay, let's start from the beginning. I have a 1TB capacity 2,5'' WD My Passport, old one, from around 2013-ish. Somehow the file system had gone "poof" and the disk became unusable. Despite being nearly full before it broke, I wanted to recover all ~900GB of files before fixing it with a...

I was trying to repair my win7 install earlier this week and because the HP recovery disks didnt bring up the option to do a repair install i went searching for an executable through the console. Unfortunately the one i found didn't bring up that option either and instead started by formatting...

So I recently swapped over to Linux on my main gaming machine and I noticed something peculiar.... Steam downloads significantly faster (actually caps out my gigabit speeds in most cases) on Linux than on Windows. For reference, I typically have burst speeds of about 55MB/s on Windows and then...

Can anybody recommend a NAS with a non-proprietary file system? Other parameters are almost irrelevant. Trying to convince me to use anything with a proprietary file system is like asking a victim of violent crime to walk down a dark alley. Thanks, Mike

Hi all and thanks for reading, I need to work with my colleague in the other part of the world, and we work in the same project. We created a web application long ago to track the work process and interchange information. Now we have new requirements and I was wondering if there is a way to...

I was just wondering if there's a way to make CD/DVD drives appear under their own File System types in Windows Explorer through the registry or elsehow, just like with FAT32, exFAT and NTFS drives, etc. If not then it'll just have to be a feature that I suggest to Windows and Microsoft Thanks...

(Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I’m new) So my 500w Stock PSU just died. Maybe one of the reason is because my pc sits on carpet, (I’m upgrading to an EVGA 600w tomorrow) I’ve put a cardboard box underneath it giving it a little bit of height from the ground. I’ll also be putting a slice...
