Working with a personal computer, and in particular with the ntfs file system, involves the use of access to file data. The main thing is to know what is needed to read and write them, as well as what software to use for these purposes.
Necessary
- - Personal Computer;
- - plugin for TotalCommander;
- - drivers for the ntfs file system, NTFS for Windows 98 pro or the NTFS for DOS Pro application.
Instructions
Step 1
The ntfs file system stores all data in the form of sectors, their size is not too large, therefore, when read, they are transferred unchanged (without processing). It takes slightly more time and CPU resources to decrypt compressed ntfs documents. But nevertheless, in general, the speed of work, even in such cases, is unchanged and does not take too much time.
Step 2
To identify on the disk one or another element of the file is different from the rather popular FAT32 system. But to choose which of the systems is better, only the user himself can, based on personal preferences. The ability to search for files and direct access to it will increase the speed of working with information and determine how vulnerable ntfs is to file fragmentation.
Step 3
Due to the fact that all data in the ntfs file system is stored in several records, rather compact, their search is very simple and fast. The main thing is that the information is not too large, otherwise all its fragments will be scattered, and the process of reading them is significantly slowed down.
Step 4
To see ntfs, you need to do one of several simple steps (you can choose from) that will make the task much easier:
- install from the official website Total Commander, with which you can easily view ntfs files;
- download the drivers for ntfs to your personal computer. After that, install them on your PC;
- burn a floppy disk (or USB flash drive) using NTFS for DOS Pro software. Now use it by downloading it to your computer;
- use the NTFS for Windows 98 pro utility, which is a direct analogue of the NTFS for DOS Pro application.
Step 5
Most of the software you need is paid. Free software is not recommended not only by manufacturers, but also by users themselves, because free utilities do not always give the desired result.
