UEFI GPT fdisk is a port to UEFI of the famous GPT fdisk partitioning tool, see http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/ . Now since this program runs directly under UEFI shell you don't need to *boot* the system to convert/edit partition tables.

Generic SCSI target subsystem for Linux SCST allows creation of sophisticated storage devices. It includes generic SCSI target core with SCSI target drivers and backend handlers. There are target drivers for iSCSI, Fibre Channel, SRP, SAS, FCoE, etc.

RapidDisk is a Linux kernel module to dynamically create, remove, and manage RAM disk volumes. Ramdisks are a method by you which can allocate parts of your RAM for high performing file data storage.

The linux e2compr package consists of a set of patches and utilities to provide transparent compression and decompression in the second extended (ext2) filesystem.

PRATIMA, an Asynchronous Remote Volume Replicator for Linux: Pratima performs online, real-time, reliable and efficient block level data replication to a remote computer over a network in both synchronous and asynchronous modes for Linux.

It is a Uruguayan Linux distribution. Can be used from floppy disks, cdroom or you can install it in your hard disk. It has been designed to be fast and effective without leaving of side the graphical aspect for the user.

A Disk Scheduling Simulator tool. With an intuitive GUI interface and command line functionality. Built using both VC and VB. Currently supports SSTF,LOOK,CLOOK,SCAN and CSCAN algorithms. Rotational latency is also optionally supported.

This is a Linux kernel driver that adapts the kernel's own software RAID1 (i.e. mirroring) driver for use in the context of network attached storage devices. This driver does intelligent resyncronization, async writes, and automatic array administration

The project provides for filesystem level snapshots over the 'modified' ext2 filesystem.

Flashmon is a Linux kernel module that monitors NAND flash memory access events using Kprobes and Jprobes. Flashmon targets embedded boards shipped with bare flash chips managed with MTD : mainly JFFS2, UBIFS and YAFFS based systems. The monitored events are : flash page read / write requests, and flash block erase operations. Instructions on how to use Flashmon are included in the archive.

Ftape - the Linux kernel floppy tape driver

The goal of this project is to develop a block I/O bandwidth controller on Linux.

Make CD-ROM Recovery (mkCDrec) makes a bootable (El Torito) disaster recovery image, including backups of the linux system to the same CD-ROM if space permits, or to a multi-volume CD-ROM set. Be aware: ----------- Please use "Relax-and-Recover"(ReaR - https://relax-and-recover.org) instead of mkCDrec. mkCDrec is an "abandoned project".

□ Developing a new block allocation scheme of EXT-2 file system named NHA(New Hybrid Allocation)-Ext2 that takes advantages of log-structured file systems and convential file systems for optimizing random writes as well as sequential writes on SSDs.

Pyro Project is a Linux kernel module that adds CD burning capabilities directly to the kernel.

There are popular tape device ArVid which based on ordinary (PAL/SECAM) VHS & ISA board with PLM which often used in Russia and xUSSR. ArVid board are controled by VHS behind integrated multisystem IRC node. I've coded raw driver for this device. Driver

BDwrap is a template for writing stackable block device drivers on Linux. It's clean interface hides the complexity of device handling, asynchronous calls, buffer cache interaction, etc. It is a great tool to develop stacked block drivers quickly.

'finddouble' application searches into a directory and all its sub directories. If it finds several times the same file, a warning message is displayed, but no other action is taken. It's main use is to help you optimize you disk usage.

This project produces a Linux kernel module that provides packet writing support for CD-R/W drives, enabling ordinary read-write mount of CD-ROM drives capable of supporting packet/incremental recording.
