Is there any value in partitioning the system drive?

I've always set up my computer with a system drive for the OS and Programs and then a RAID 0 for video capture.
However, I found this link which suggests that it might be better to partition the "system drive" for better performance.  Does anybody partition, their system drive?

NO !!!
One physical drive has one set of read/write heads
When you partition a drive, that one set of read/write heads now has to do double the work to navigate two areas
The only time you might want to partition a drive is to have a dual boot... and then each OS is completely separate from the other and that set of read/write heads is still only working in one space

  • Is there any way to use the system font?

    Firefox for Android uses a font that is not the default Android system font (Roboto), and I would much prefer to use that font. Is there any way to change the font Firefox for Android uses?

  • Is there any way to customise the system generated packing slip?

    Hi All,
    My customer would like to be able to add a few field to the system generated packing slip. I can see where to update things on the invoice in system emails, but couldn't see anywhere for the packing slip?
    Also there's a few random bits that get printed on the invoice that aren't part of the system invoice. Any idea how to remove? My client is printing from Chrome. See below:

    Thanks for replying @thetrickster888,
    Tried all 4 tags but none showed the phone or email on the packing slip
    {tag_addressbilling}
    {tag_addressshipping}
    {tag_recipientaddress}
    {tag_emailaddress}
    We use a pretty standard Registration-buy form and have the phone line as:
    <td><label for="HomePhone">Phone Number </label><br />
                    <input type="text" maxlength="255" class="cat_textbox" id="HomePhone" name="HomePhone" /></td>
    But still doesn't show on the packing slip. I don't know what else to do.
    I can get them all to show on the invoice but not the packing slip. The only thing I can think of is to give the factory the invoice - but then it's not set up well enough for them to mark off the checks when it's made and packed (we have special boxes on the packing slip for this) plus then they can see pricing which we try to avoid.

  • Is there any way to change the disc drive region after the 5th time?

    I wasn't aware that you can only change the drive region 5 times before it becomes permanent. So now mine is set for region 2 (Europe), and all but 1 of my DVD's are region 1 (North America). Is there any way at all to undo the 'permanent' region setting now?

    I don't think so.  You can search in the wild and untamed Internet if there are hacks.  I seem to recall coming across some years ago, but those may have been for PCs and resetting device firmware.  The danger is if something foes wrong then the drive is totally dead. www.xlr8yourmac.com/ might be a good place for a Mac.
    Some ideas (I have no idea if they will get around the issue for sure):
    Try playing with VLC media player. VLC media player - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ - general media player that plays just about anything.
    Try buying an external DVD drive.

  • Is there any danger in setting the system date/time to a prior date?

    We are dealing with some software digital certificate expiration issues.  Until the developer gets them fixed, the only way we can use the software is to set the date/time preferences to a date before the certificate expired.  Some users are concerned that this will spell catastrophe for their systems because Unix/Linux based things don't like haivng their dates messed with.  I maintain that the only things that would be affected are the date/time stamp on files they save while the settings are changed, possibly any iCal events created during the change (which can be overwritten by the user), and that if they use Time Machine the backups might not be dated correctly (and for that reason I've suggested they shut Time Machine off while their date is changed).  I just don't believe it will lead to massive system failure.  Who is correct?

    Yes you will have issus with DHCP leases/Internet and your router if your time and date isn't current.
    Offline you can do what you want. Better to get a temporary workaround from the developer to hold you over.

  • I lost my iphone 4 yesterday , is there any way to destroy the system of it using the serial number? Also , Can thieves access my photos or private things even if there was a passcode on my iphone?!

    Please help me ,I am really worried !

    Unfortunately I did not install find my iphone in the lost iphone so I cant  use it . Can they restore the information and photos easily?! I mean the computer does not ask them for the passcode or the password of the apple ID inorder to complete the process of restoring?!
    If they do restore it in iTunes, that process is going to wipe all your content from it, so your information would be gone.  Yes, they can then go on and use your device as theirs, but your information is wiped from it at that point.
    For future reference, along with the passcode, you can set it to erase everything after 10 failed passcode attempts.  As long as you have regularly sync'd content back to your computer and maintained an up to date backup, you have safeguarded your content for your own recovery and use.
    And in iOS 7 an iCloud account and find my phone activation is worth it just for Activation Lock, even if you don't care about any other iCloud features (all of which you can simply disable and not use if you choose to).

  • Any benefit to partitioning a hard drive

    Is there any benefit to partitioning a hard drive on a Mac?
    John

    A very good reason for partitioning a larger drive into smaller "bites" is the usefulness of Erasing a Volume vs a Drive.
    This is particularly helpful if you do video work or other works where contiguous free space is needed (free space with no interruptions).
    After adding and deleting lots of files, a little "digital lint" gets left behind even after emptying the trash. With several large partitions (i.e. 5 100MB volumes on a 500GB drive) you can have 4 ongoing projects and still have an empty one. Once you're completely done with a video project on one of the Volumes, you just got to Disk Utility and do an Erase on that Volume. The other volumes remain, but that one is now "brand spankin' new" and clean.
    Programs like Final Cut Pro like that. Especially during capture.

  • Is there any way to put the values inthe system matrix which is non editabl

    is there any way to put the values inthe system matrix which is non editable...
    this Q is not that much priority since i had achieved the requirement other way round by having user defined matrix ... but if i get the way for this it will help my add on performance much better...

    Hi Raj, I didnt get all the details but here some ideas how you can solve your issue:
    Depending in the system form you are working you can always use a DBDataSource in order to manipulate the rows in a matrix. It's much better as using the objects of the matrix itself. In this case you can use:
    oMatrix.FlushToDataSource()
    oDBDsource.SetValue("U_Quan", pVal.Row, "101")
    oMatrix.Clear()
    oMatrix.LoadFromDataSource()
    As you can see in SetValue i'm obtaining the Column, then the row number and then setting a NEW value for this cell.
    Please consider if you can use DBDataSource instead of UserDataSource.
    If the answer is yes then you can use the following:
    oMatrix.FlushToDataSource()
    '//Get the line you want
    matrix.GetLineData(pval.row)
    '//Call the Userdatasource assigned to that column
    UserDataSource = UserDataSources.Item("ItmCode")
    '//Set the new value
    m_UserDS.ValueEx = "A02520"
    oMatrix.LoadFromDataSource()
    You can also use:
    oMatrix.Columns.Item("ItemName").Cells.Item(l_rownum).Specific.String = "A02520"
    In case you are not assigning the string in a combobox of course.
    Good luck!

  • Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

    is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
    We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
    Any ideas?

    I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

  • Is there any way to set the SCCM system to use local time instead of UTC?

    Is there any way to set the SCCM system to use local time instead of UTC?
    When we try to deploy packages, if you don’t specify the time, it reverts to UTC which for us is off by 5 hours.

    Which times are you talking about? Deployment start times or deadlines? Those could be set to UTC *or* client local time.

    Thank You

    but it seems there is no option in oracle it self which can be used as there they are saying to get a data masking software which we can't due to some internal issues....I would not say that. How one implements masking depends entirely on the requirements that need to be met.
    For example, schema A owns all the tables. Schema B can be created as a "trusted" schema - in other words, schema A trusts schema B and allows it full access (with grants) to its tables. Schema B implements data masking as views. For each table in A, a view exists in B that implements the required masking. B can now grant select access on these views to user C. User C will see the same data object names in B as it would have if it used A - only, by using the B data objects it uses masked data objects and not the original source data objects.
    Another example - schema Dev is to have all the data objects of schema Prod, but masked where needed. One can use CTAS (Create Table As Select) to create the required tables in Dev with masked values where relevant. This Dev schema can be "refreshed" on weekends by dropping all tables and getting a new fresh copy of production data and masking it - ready for the next week's development cycle.
    If the application use is for example APEX, then instead of coding SQL directly as reporting regions to display, a function is used instead. APEX supports reporting regions where it calls a function and this function provides the APEX run-time with the SQL to execute and contents to render. It is easy to use this approach to implement logic in functions that masked column data depending on who the APEX user is, the security/role attributes of the user, and so on.
    No there is not a single "+mask this column!+" feature in Oracle.. but that does not mean that such a feature is not supported and cannot be implemented. Oracle has a very comprehensive and rich set of tools - more so than most (if not all) other RDBMS products.
    It is up to the architect/designer/developer to use this toolkit in creating a system that meets the specific requirements at hand.

    If Disk Warrior does not work you can try the following steps (but they may not work if the disk has a hardware error).
    Get the disk (DVD or CD) that came with the system (since you have it listed as 10.6.8).  If it is 10.7 or 10.8 use the Recovery partition to boot from or the USB installer if you have that option.
    Insert the disk then power down
    HOLDING the C key, power up to boot from the disc.
    Get to Disk Utility
    If Disk Utility will now show your hard drive, use DU to REPAIR the disk.
    When it completes the Repair process successfully as indicated in DU, do a shut down.  If Repair is not successful then an different course of action is indicated below.
    Then HOLDING THE APPLE (or Command key depending on your keyboard) KEY AND THE OPTION KEY AND THE LETTER P AND R KEYS, continue hiolding them until you hear the chime tone for the THIRD time then release all four keys.
    If REPAIR is not successful, use the Install disc as a boot and REINSTALL THE OS X OPERATING SYSTEM  DO NOT ERASE THE DISK OR VOLUME FIRST.  REPEAT DO NOT erase the disk or volume before trying to reinstall the OS X operating system.  After re-installing the OS do a software update.  Note that ERASING the disk is NOT required to do an OS re-install.  This allows your existing data and application files to remain.
    If that fails then you are down to the "bitter end" of erasing the volume and reinstalling the OS and then all the other software.
    If erasing the Volume fails then your last hope is to completely erase the entire hard drive, repartion the disk  and try a re-install.
    If that fasils then you may have a defective hard disk.

  • Is there any way to change the PR in WO ?

    Dears, as per the example:
    The subject CRO was created for a value of 100 based on PR for the same value.
    This CRO was modified to 30 as contractor could not complete the job without modifying the PR and amount was paid.
    The balance amount (70) is still hanging in the system which is preventing us to issue another CRO to pay the other contractor.
    Is there any way to change the PR in WO so that this amount can be released?
    THANKS
    Paulo CH

    HI Paulo,
    When you created CRO at first place you had given the Gross Price as 100 in external data tab of your operation.
    This is open field which you can change to the actual price what ever you need and same will be reflected in your PR through Work flow.
