 Hi Nick,

I haven't actually used it but I've heard of a "write blocking" device.
You would connect this between your computer (possibly the IDE/SCSI
cable) and the hard drive. Any writing attempts would be blocked.

Hope this gives you some help as what to look for,
Bernardo.

Assunto: Hard disk file system identification



I have received an internal hard drive that I need to image and perform
some analysis on; however, I don't know the file system type on the
disk, there for, I can not correctly mount it to the RedHat 9 machine I
used to do my image creation and analysis.  Is there any way that I can
identify what file system type is on a hard disk without jeopardizing
the integrity of the hard disk?  Thanks for the help.



Nick
