Quantum has pushed out a major StorNext release, adding integrated filesystem deduplication and replication.

A hard drive is a computer storage device that manages and organizes computer data from the actual CPU. The hard drive also stores all critical system data required for a computer to startup. Without a hard drive, a computer cannot function. Repairing a locked up hard drive that prevents a computer from functioning is an [...]

If I open up the pc, remove, and plug back in the SATA [...]
1. One trick I have learned as a technician, when the problem is data-read errors off the platters themselves, is to freeze the hard drive overnight. It makes the data more ‘readable,’ but for a one-shot deal. If this data is critical, and you have a replacement hard drive (which, if it’s a drive failure, [...]
