Предсказывают, что Windows XP скоро умрет как операционная система.
Из-за новых стандартов форматирования дисков, про которые Windows XP “не знает”.
Through the International Disk Drive Equipment and Materials Association (Idema) all hard drive makers have committed to adopting the 4K advanced format by the end of January 2011.
Hard drive makers have begun an education and awareness campaign to let people know about the advanced format and to warn about the problems it could inflict on users of older operating systems such as Windows XP.
This is because Windows XP was released before the 4K format was decided upon.
“The 512 byte sector assumption is ensconced into a lot of the aspects of computer architecture,” said Mr Burks from Seagate.
By contrast, Windows 7, Vista, OS X Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and versions of the Linux kernel released after September 2009 are all 4K aware.
To help Windows XP cope, advanced format drives will be able to pretend they still use sectors 512 bytes in size.
А Microsoft уже давно отказалась от собственного “дитяти”.
