When working with evidence drives, data integrity is critical. Using ECC RAM, which identifies and corrects common single-bit errors, would help dramatically improve data transfer reliability in digital forensic tools. Why use ECC memory Electrical, magnetic or even radioactive interference inside a system, may cause a single bit of DRAM Read more…
How often are you faced with a case with multiple individual devices with different interfaces (HDDs, SSDs, NVMe, USB, etc.) or a whole RAID array? If all you have on your hands is one imager with no parallel imaging capacity, it can result in a prohibitive processing timeline. To help Read more…
Made of lightweight metal, the cover protects the screen from scratches and other types of damage and allows fast packing of the hardware unit for transportation.
A damaged hard drive, especially when it comes to evidence drives, requires a complex imaging approach. It is necessary to avoid the drive’s further deterioration and data loss during damaged drive imaging. TaskForce system enhances your working with damaged evidence drives, minimizing the risk of losing data on the functioning Read more…
