1) Paperback Book File System Forensic Analysis by Addison-Wesley Professional. I´ve been in IT for over 25 years, and in that time I´ve read a lot of technical books. "File System Forensic Analysis" is not only the best book I have read on computer forensics, it´s probably the best technical work in ANY field I´ve ever read. It´s thoroughly researched, clearly written, and contains virtually no fluff. The numerous rave reviews it has received are well-deserved.

My only quibble is the short, but seemingly gratuitous section on hexadecimal and decimal arithmetic. If you´re ready for this book, you´ll already know this stuff. But, that´s only a few pages in a book that´s otherwise packed with real substance.

2) Paperback Book File System Forensic Analysis by Addison-Wesley Professional. I can´t say enough good things about this book and author. The material is beautifully laid out and the writing style is fluid and effortless. The author has a real talent for using metaphors and figures to illustrate elusive concepts.

All but the very rarest file systems are covered, and numerous ´screenshots´ show how to use the Linux command prompt and get your hands dirty exploring disks on your own.

While this book is a gold standard for digital forensic examiners, it would also be valuable to the computer enthusiast who´s interested in things such as what happens to their hard drive when they format it, exactly what happens during the boot process, etc.

I´ve had 3 courses in digital forensics, and this book gives an in-depth discussion of disk level concepts (HPA, FAT, MFT, etc) that were merely glossed over in my formal studies.¤

3) Paperback Book File System Forensic Analysis by Addison-Wesley Professional. Great resource on file systems and file system data structures, although I wish it covered Apple´s HFS+.¤

4) Paperback Book File System Forensic Analysis by Addison-Wesley Professional. Great Book. Great job Brian. A must have in your bookshelf if you are serious about computer forensics.
It only lacks two things to be perfect: a reiserfs and a HFS+ sections.

Only an error. GPT partition schema isn´t used only in big servers. New Intel Macintoshes use it by default for their boot drive.¤
