NTFS also supports shadow copy to allow backups of a system while it is running, but the functionality of the shadow copies varies between different versions of Windows.ĭisk partitioning or disk slicing is the creation of one or more regions on secondary storage, so that each region can be managed separately. Unlike FAT and High Performance File System (HPFS), NTFS supports access control lists (ACLs), filesystem encryption, transparent compression, sparse files and file system journaling. NTFS uses several files typically hidden from the user to store metadata about other files stored on the drive which can help improve speed and performance when reading data.

Windows can convert FAT32/16/12 into NTFS without the need to rewrite all files.

NTFS reading and writing support is provided using a free and open-source kernel implementation known as NTFS3 in Linux and the NTFS-3G driver in BSD. It superseded File Allocation Table (FAT) as the preferred filesystem on Windows and is supported in Linux and BSD as well. Starting with Windows NT 3.1, it is the default file system of the Windows NT family. New Technology File System (NTFS) is a proprietary journaling file system developed by Microsoft. Extended versions known as bzSaraB and baras are also available. Filesystem independent: it may be used to restore a system to a partition of a different size and/or to a partition with a different filesystem Ī text-mode browser/extractor: plugin for dar files in mc ( Midnight Commander).Ī scheduler / command-line frontend known as SaraB allows the Towers of Hanoi, Grandfather-Father-Son, or any custom backup rotation strategy, and modifications are available for PAR file support.

Hash file ( MD5, SHA1 or SHA-512) generated on-fly for each slice, the resulting file is compatible with md5sum or sha1sum, to be able to quickly check each slice's integrity.Live filesystem backup: detects when a file has been modified while it was read for backup and can retry saving it up to a given maximum number of retries.Optional public key encryption and signature ( OpenPGP).Optional Blowfish, Twofish, AES, Serpent, Camellia encryption.

#Dar disk archive archive

Fast listing of archive contents through saving the catalogue of files in the archive.

Fast-extracting of files from anywhere in the archive.

An individual can choose not to compress already compressed files based on their filename suffix.

Per-file compression with gzip, bzip2, lzo, xz or lzma (as opposed to compressing the whole archive).

Takes care of some filesystem specific attributes like Birthdate of HFS+ filesystem and immutable, data-journaling, secure-deletion, no-tail-merging, undeletable, noatime attributes of ext2/3/4 filesystem.

Takes care of Linux file Extended Attributes,.

Takes care of hard-linked inodes (hard-linked plain files, char devices, block devices, hard-linked symlinks).

Takes care of any type of inode (directory, plain files, symlinks, special devices, named pipes, sockets, doors.

Option of deleting files from the system which are removed in the archive.

Support for slices, archives split over multiple files of a particular size.
