    SpinRite

    SpinRite

    Gibson Research Corporation

    After more than seven months of non-stop development, and more than two months of continuous testing by hundreds of SpinRite 6.0 pre-purchase volunteers, it is with great pride that we have released the sixth major version of SpinRite for an upgrade to prior users and sale to new users. By operating directly upon magnetic storage media at a level below any installed operating system, this major milestone release of SpinRite is able to operate on all Windows XP NTFS formats, all DOS FAT, all Linux file systems, Novell, Macintosh (if temporarily moved into a PC) or anything else, it can even be used to repair and recover the hard drive from an ailing TiVo! SpinRite v6.0 achieves complete operating system independence by incorporating the FreeDOS operating system. This allows it to be used on any and all Intel/AMD PC systems. As you can see from the Windows screen image above, SpinRite 6.0 can create a bootable diskette or generate a standard, CD-R burnable ISO file.

    MiniCopier

    MiniCopier

    MiniCopier

    MiniCopier is a graphical copy manager. It provides more comfort and control over files copy operations than basic OS functions. With MiniCopier it is possible to queue several transfers, resume a copy that has failed, limit the speed or pause the copy. If a transfer fails, an error is logged and the rest of the queue is treated. MiniCopier tries to include most of the features of SuperCopier (Windows-only software) into a completely multi-platform program. Choose another name for the target if a file already exists. Add new transfers to the queue while a copy is already being processed. Set a default behavior if target file already exists.

    Lifespan

    Lifespan

    Micromat

    Lifespan is intended to address the ever-increasing use and reliance on flash-based storage. If you require the most out of your solid-state drives or other flash-based storage devices, you can benefit from knowing how much useful life is remaining on those drives. Flash-based storage devices have a finite life, and when they exceed this lifespan, their performance can begin to degrade, or they can stop working entirely. It can be extremely valuable to be aware of the available life remaining, particularly in scenarios where these devices are used vigorously. Most flash-based storage devices store your data on non-volatile NAND solid-state memory. Each cell of this flash memory can only be ‘programmed and erased’ a limited number of times. Drives can have fewer than 2,000 or over 10,000 of this program erase cycles or p/e cycles, depending on the type and quality of the NAND chips used. For a middle-of-the-road solid-state drive, this translates into about 100 TB of useful life.

This makes it possible for websites to be 99% sure who you are, no matter if you’re logged in or not. Once we detect someone’s trying to follow you, we’ll warn you and block them instantly – or we’ll make some fake fingerprints to throw em’ off. Advertisers can only build a portfolio by connecting the dots as you browse. So we make sure they connect the wrong dots. Prices online can be jacked up if retailers think you’ll be willing to pay. So we make sure to keep them guessing about your shopping habits. AVG AntiTrack also deletes tracking cookies and browsing history, so people on your side of the screen don’t know what you do online either.
