How to convert a Hard Disk or a USB flash drive from FAT32 to NTFS


Introduction:

                      Are you having trouble in copying high-quality films, big file size, etc. to your USB flash drive. This must be the problem. Most USB flash drive today is preformatted as FAT32 format. Which is FAT32 format can't handle files larger than about 4 GB. Like me, I'm annoyed at it. And after a long time of research. I've found that you must change your FAT32 to NTFS to copy this files with a big size. You can do this by formatting the USB flash drive or your Hard Drive (So before you do this, if you have any files. Just backup it somewhere.). You can also change it without formatting it. But you cannot turn NTFS back to FAT32 without formatting the USB or Hard Drive.

Formatting method:

Using 'Command Prompt'

                      You must run a command prompt with an administrator privileges. Then type in type convert /? to see the syntax for the convert command.



                      In this example, the drive letter is G: so command will be convert G: /FS:NTFS. The conversion of the drive will take a while depending on the size of the drive.


Reformat the Drive

                      This method is not that much complicated than the first method. You just have to right-click the drive and choose Format.


And then select NTFS in the file system drop-down.


Finish the format then copy your data back.

Without Formatting method:

                      I have not yet test this method. But they've said that this is working. Do this at your own risk. I have nothing to do if anything bad happens. If something happens, just read or question here Link: (http://www.tweakandtrick.com/2012/02/convert-fat32-to-ntfs-file-system.html). This link has nothing to do with me.

USB flash drive (Universal Serial Bus)


Introduction:

                      A USB flash drive is a data storage device that includes flash memory with an integrated Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface. USB flash drives are typically removable and rewritable, and physically much smaller than a floppy disk. Most weigh less than 30 g. As of September 2011 drives of up to 256 gigabytes (GB) are available. Storage capacities as large as 2 terabytes are planned, with steady improvements in size and price per capacity expected. Some allow up to 100,000 write/erase cycles, depending on the exact type of memory chip used, and a 10 year shelf storage time.

Parts:


  1. USB Standard, Male A-plug
  2. USB mass controller device
  3. Test points
  4. Flash Memory Chip
  5. Crystal oscillator
  6. LED (Optional)
  7. Write-protect switch (Optional)
  8. Space for second memory chip

USB Connector

                      The USB connector is the small, silver extension that extends from the main USB device. The connector is what inserts into the USB port of the computer. Because this part of the USB flash drive is easily damaged, newer USB flash drives come with a switch that pulls the connector into the main compartment. This avoids the problem of the connector melting, accumulating dust or being crushed. The USB connector inserts into any USB port in a computer, or the user can insert it into a hub for devices on a machine.

Memory Chip

                      The flash memory chip, a black chip placed on the main circuit board of the USB drive, is what stores the information. This chip is protected by an outer case. These cases are sometimes clear, so the user can see the flash memory chip on the USB drive's circuit board. The flash memory chip contains different amounts of memory, depending on the device purchased. Flash drives started with a capacity of a few megabytes, but they continue to increase in capacity. Flash drives can hold gigabytes of information of flash memory chips.

LED and Crystal Oscillator

                      USB flash drives contain light-emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs are lighted components that indicate processing or connection for the user. A green LED is used to mean "Ready." It indicates that the USB drive is connected and ready to save information. Some flash drives have a red LED light to indicate that an issue exists with the connection. A crystal oscillator is a small component on the flash drive's circuit board that sends a frequency signal. These oscillators are used in watches and other devices that keep time. Oscillators are used to control the output of the flash drive.

Advantages / Disadvantages:

Advantages
                      Compared to hard drives, flash drives use little power, have no fragile moving parts, and for most capacities are small and light. Data stored on flash drives is impervious to mechanical shock, magnetic fields, scratches and dust. These properties make them suitable for transporting data from place to place and keeping the data readily at hand.
Flash drives also store data densely compared to many removable media. In mid-2009, 256 GB drives became available, with the ability to hold many times more data than a DVD or even a Blu-ray disc.

Disadvantages
                      Like all flash memory devices, flash drives can sustain only a limited number of write and erase cycles before the drive fails. This should be a consideration when using a flash drive to run application software or an operating system. To address this, as well as space limitations, some developers have produced special versions of operating systems or commonplace applications (such as Mozilla Firefox) designed to run from flash drives. These are typically optimized for size and configured to place temporary or intermediate files in the computer's main RAM rather than store them temporarily on the flash drive.

How to search fast on google



How:
                      This one is for those who has a slow internet connection. So, how to search fast on google. I mean, how to search on google with only one click. Or without loading the Googles' website (http://www.google.com.ph/). You need to have a Google Chrome browser or any web browser. Make it sure that the default search website is Google. Now if it is already set. Type in the things you want to search on google on the address bar. Then hit enter. (In some browser, they already have a search bar built in their top-right corner.) Now, you do not have to wait on (http://www.google.com.ph/) to load and wait for hours to the Google sear results.

Hope this helps..

How to create a phishing website

Introduction:

                      Now, I'm gonna show you how does hackers make a phishing website. Which they use in getting emails' and passwords' from their victims. First, they spread emails pretending to be a website that says. "Your account is compromised. Please login to verify that you still own this account." I have a lot of that in my spam or junk of my email. Now back to the phishing website.

Requirements:


                      It is easy to create one. All you need is:

  1. A web hosting site that supports PHP. example: cwahi.net, 000webhost.com, etc.
  2. PHP scripts which you can download here. Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?d7e2591dybe0la2
  3. (Optional) Fake email address

Steps:

  1. Register on a web hosting site of your choice. Follow the instructions upon registration. And upload the necessary files.
  2. (Optional) Change the appearance of 'login.php' into what site do you want to fake.
  3. You're up to go!!!

Explanation:

                      The 'index.php' will be the default page of your website because of it's name 'index' (so don't rename it.). It will direct the victim to 'login.php' where they will be believed that they are not logged in on their account (BlindMind is not a website, it just comes off my mind.). After they log in with their accounts, 'login.php' will make the 'process.php' work. The 'process.php' will save the information given by the victim to a file named 'file.txt' (you can open it with any editor or in the browser). And then, the 'process.php' will leave the user with an error message. Saying that, "Our servers our offline by now, try again for the next 48 hours. If you are not able to login your account, please contact us". And when the victim starts to believe it (which will depend on how realistic your phishing website looks). They will wait for the time that you set to the real web site with their account. And because it is just a fake message they. They will be able to login to their accounts. And ignore the things that they met from your files. And you are there sitting on a corner, celebrating from the informations that you get from your victims.The format of email and password on 'file.txt' is. "email", "password".

                      The use of the fake email is for you to be able to spread out the word. Spam it throughout the internet. And make your victim believe that you are the admin of that site.

Example Website: http://moose1234.cwahi.net/

If you have any questions, just comment below.

Note: I don't know why but Cwahi is not letting 'process.php' to save the information. But this totally work, try it on a local server. Try WAMP or XAMPP.
