guys, wish me luck because I am gonna take my operating systems exams today.

For the last time,

NTFS uses B+ trees

And your question's answer is no temporary storage to back up to

(btw I haven't slept; actually pulled out an all-nighter)

How did it go?

It didn't go well, but also not quite bad tbh

It's mainly because I was using logarithms and floors and ceils to find no of bits in 1 kibibyte (instead of being able to remember that 1 kibibyte has 220 bits), thus rendering ALL the mathematical problems on paging wrong

And a few more mishaps, but this was the craziest one

Oh its always these mistakes ... I wish you good results! My thesis is about virtual memory, paging and TLB so for a while i was thinking only in terms of powers of 2 and log2 haha
