  3. Memory paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_paging

    Windows can be configured to use free space on any available drives for page files. It is required, however, for the boot partition (i.e., the drive containing the Windows directory) to have a page file on it if the system is configured to write either kernel or full memory dumps after a Blue Screen of Death. Windows uses the paging file as ...

  8. Unix filesystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_filesystem

    The filesystem appears as one rooted tree of directories. [1] Instead of addressing separate volumes such as disk partitions, removable media, and network shares as separate trees (as done in DOS and Windows: each drive has a drive letter that denotes the root of its file system tree), such volumes can be mounted on a directory, causing the volume's file system tree to appear as that directory ...

    Disk cloning is the process of duplicating all data on a digital storage drive, such as a hard disk or solid state drive, using hardware or software techniques. [1] Unlike file copying, disk cloning also duplicates the filesystems, partitions, drive meta data and slack space on the drive. [2]
