Drive Genius 5.0.2



Last but not least, Drive Genius features advanced tools for resizing and moving of volumes without reformatting, and sports a sector editing tool to modify the data on any sector of the drive powerful features that will satisfy even the seasoned Mac experts.


Drive Genius 5.0.1 Drive Genius for Mac gives you faster performance from your Mac while also protecting it. The award-winning and improved DrivePulse feature alerts you to hard drive issues before they become major problems. Optimized for OS X 10.10 Yosemite, top features like Defrag and DriveSlim will help keep your Mac running fast. The all-new BootWell tool lets you create a special bootable secondary drive to Defrag or Repair your main hard drive. You can also personalize and organize your Mac hard drive icons with IconGenius.


DefragmentOptimize your drive for maximum performance. Defragment will re-organize each file into a contiguous area of your drive allowing your computer to perform less work while retrieving your files.


RepartitionAdd, delete, hide, expand or shrink OS X partitions so you can organize your Mac hard drive more efficiently. Repartition enables you to manage (shrink, expand, shift, delete, hide, reveal or customize) partitions (volumes) on your hard drives. Unlike traditional methods of backing up, erasing and repartitioning the drive, Drive Genius for macOS allows you to expand or shrink partitions without erasing them.


InitializeThe Initialize utility prepares new drives, or erases old drives, for use with OS X. Drives can optionally be initialized for use with Windows/Camera cards or for use with legacy PowerPC macs.


Secure EraseOverwrites all data using one of five secure patterns designed to make data recovery near impossible, it then creates a newly formatted drive or deletes files and folders.


Initializing a drive basically means to format the drive. To break this down a bit further, all drives that are used on a computer are formatted with a specific file format, which is essentially just an organizational strategy on how your files will be saved to the disk.


When you initialize a drive, you are refreshing those organizational rules to bring the drive back into a working condition. However, this will erase all of the data that is currently on the drive, and what you are left with is a completely empty drive.


Throughout this post we are going to go over what all of the options within this dialog box mean. We will also break down how you will want to move forward whether this is a brand new drive, or a drive you are trying to recover data from.


If you are seeing this message on a drive you have used in the past and you know that it contains some data, the drive is most likely suffering from corruption. Normally a drive will receive the corruption due to the drive being disconnected from the computer without being properly ejected from the system and is not a sign of the drive failing.


In most cases the drive can be repaired with a simple initialize, however initializing the drive will erase all of the data that is currently sitting on the drive. You will want to use a data recovery utility to pull all of the data that is currently sitting on the drive before initializing.


In my example I have two physical drives connected to my system, as well as the disk image for Data Rescue, since it was just installed. Your screen will differ from the above screenshot depending on how many drives you have connected to your system.


If you select to eject the drive it will disconnect the drive from your system. If you do not have the available time to run the recovery, it would be our recommendation to eject the drive and place it aside until you are ready to perform the recovery.


Android mobile operating system is an open source system software available for various smartphone, tablet devices and Desktops too. In our previous Videos we shown you How to install Android 4.4.4 Kitkat on PCs but This time we will be installing the latest Android version which is ANdroid 5 Lollipop on external USB drives ( External Hard disk, Pen Drive or MicroSd Card).With This installation Method, Users can multi Dual Boot Android with Windows on PC and Laptops powered by x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64 Bit) computer architecture hardware. Users are required to Download Android x86 ISO File and can install it via bootable USB flash drive or bootable CD/DVD.


Step 4: Now, When the menu appears, just select Install Android x86 to External hard disk or Pen Drive/Sd Card. You can also Run it As a Live Cd which means that if any changes made, they will not be saved. But if you install it on USB Drive or internal hard drive, then any changes that you make will be saved next time you boot android.


Yes, easily!! All you need to do is to boot PC using Windows installation DVD or Windows Bootable USB drive and repair Windows boot sector. To know exactly how to do this , please refer to this article How to Uninstall Android x86 4.3, 4.4 or 5.0 from PC or Laptops


In the steps 1 to 4 to create the USB flash drive, I add a step 2a to make the Android on flash drive persistent, as if it wereinstalled on disk:1. Download TOPORESIZE tool (a zip file) and unpack it.2. run TOPORESIZE.BAT3 select CREATE NEW and store the file somewhere on your own hard disk as DATA.IMG4 set the filesize (as large as will fit in the free space on the flash drive). Note that it is difficult to choose an exact size (the numbers are in Megabyte), but a mouseclick in the slidebar will increment the size. 100 clicks will give 200kb of space.5. copy the DATA.IMG to the flash drive, and , by miracle, Android has its permanent storage.


Once you're ready to narrow down your search results, go ahead and filter by price, mileage, transmission, trim, days on lot, drivetrain, color, engine, options, and deal ratings. And if you only want to see cars with a single owner, recent price drops, photos, or available financing, our filters can help with that too.


Comments:When looking for a powerful and flexible tool for managing signups for a small organization, there is no competitor out there that beats SignUpGenius. We have used other tools and tried ones that offered the moon but failed to deliver. SUG has been capable at its core competency and allowed us to drive and find ways to use it more fully and successfully. Reliable compared to other systems, it does take some time to learn if you truly want to be an expert at it - as does any system, but it is worth the time spent.


While there are man signup and event booking forms in the market, one would struggle to find something easy to configure, design and have it deployed quickly to users for signup. If one is looking for a free service - most are limited to using google forms which does the job but is not versatileSignup genius has a generous free plan tier and is easy to setup. Jotform is it's only near competitor


Comments:Sending home forms to sign up for parent teacher conferences can be challenging. They get lost, sometimes they need to be translated, and sometimes people have already selected this time slot. Using sign up genius solves all of those problems. The link goes directly to the parents via email or Dojo. They can select the time slot that works best for their families, and once the time slot if full it does not show up anymore. I love that I can customize the design and make it school themed. I will not switch back to a paper version!


Comments:I have several computers in different locations (all mine) for which I want to have backups and images for bare metal recovery. I have found that selecting files to restore is super-simple. I like the way the product mounts the image as another drive and lets you find the files you want so easily.


Comments:It has saved my life so many times. I have two hard drives that each get Images of my C:Drive. Every other day it goes to a different drive. That way, I have an Image from every day and if a drive fails, I'm never more than one day out of date. When Windows or a program goes wonky, I don't waste much time diagnosing, I just reimage my C:Drive and within about 20-minutes I'm running perfectly again.


Macrium Reflect has proven to be an extremely cost effective means for creating and managing computer system images. The ability to quickly download a stored image to a system or to a blank hard drive or solid state drive has reduced the turn around time for reimaging computers to no more than the amount of time it takes to swap out the hard drive. We do keep spare, fully imaged drives on the shelf for each of the models of computer that we have in the enterprise. Once an image has been created and stored on our image server, we can image a 500GB SSD in less than 3 minutes. Traditional hard disk drives can be imaged in about 12 minutes.The application is extremely easy to use and the interface is intuitive enough for novice users.


I would like for the business and workstation versions to be able to image multiple drives simultaneously. This feature appears to be available only with the Deployment Kit, which has a price of $3250 per license.


Comments:Cloning is pretty fast in my opinion but that always depends on the quantity of data and the health of the drive that you're cloning from. I have tried other software but have always come back to MR.


Macrium allows us to clone and restore drives very easily. Our use case was in backing up user and employee data or configurations when a drive was failing or a reinstall was necessary. It performs fast, and is flexible in how you intend to backup and clone. Every use case we have stumbled across has been able to be solved with Macrium. When you consider the price, Macrium shines even more. So affordable and feature rich compared to other options. 2ff7e9595c
