- proprietary (but FOSS library to read and write files)
- repair mechanisms
- free open source software
- user community in libraries and archives
- maintainer (university)
- create own workflows
- sometimes faster with commercial tools
- root access
- linux: more complex?
- ease in use
- fast (imaging + metadata + export in one software)
- free software
- can read and analyze a great bunch of disk / disk images
- file viewer
- can better handle audio disks (.cue/.bin-files)
- commercial software > will this stay free software?
- not configurably
- Windows environment > no support of bash tools
- GUI
- analyzes a folder of disk images (Brunnhilde scan, file system, tree output, carved files (optional))
- can create SIP bags per disk image
- Python script > developer (e.g. of the consortium, PACKED/VIAA, ....) can easily maintain this
- DFXML is a standard for forensics
- uses built-in bitcurator tools
- wide range of supported file systems and disk image types
- FOSS
- no maintainer atm
- code is a bit messy
- Pyhon dependency
- DFXML: do we want to use this?
- BulkExtractor n/a for non-US content
- bash > no dependencies, built-in in Linux
- lightweight
- easy to maintain
- FOSS (for now ;))
- no GUI
- who is going to maintain this?
- a limited range of supported file systems and disk image types
- official maintainer
- FOSS
- GUI
- ease in use
- not as fast as scripts
- lot of manual work
