The Day After Patch Tuesday is A Good Time To Think about System Tools.



------------------------------------------
The Hidden Treasures of SysInternals

Like:

Disk2vhd which creates VHDs (virtual hard disks,

Microsoft’s VM disk format) from physical drives. 


(Don't forget to take note of the Two Gotchas.)


DiskMon which captures information about every 

read and write to your hard disk and shows it 

in a fast-moving list. 

The Writer Says: The reason I needed this tool was that a Windows Vista machine 

had suddenly started thrashing its disk for no apparent reason.



(Yes I Know, In Linux, Tools Like These were Always Available)
