DeepSpar Challenges:- traditionally challenging to find a compatible system board, now includes a PCI-E1x ATA controller - no way to remotely monitor a running system Atola Challenges: - not very flexible for playing with the configurations - when updating the firmware, requires the user to be able to push a button on the unit and start the process at the Windows Console (for me, I was across the room and need the assistance of another person) - when the unit drops its network connection, the process stops and the system needs to be completely rebooted and the Windows application needs a forced quit SD Data Copy King - Can be easy to operate, and with amazing transfer rate - Stand-alone without the limit of OS and file system - Cannot image data only area |
