  • A new technology that cuts down time and space to recover lost data has been unveiled by HCL Infosystems. The company claims that the embedded continuity and control technology takes 0.07 per cent of hard disk space to create snapshots.

    EC2 takes a snap shot of the entire system within the same hard disk drive without creating a separate partition.

    Available in 'HCL Non Stop Series', the EC2 enabled notebooks will be able to recover all data lost in case of system crash in less than a minute.

    Some of the common problems that can be addressed through EC2 include accidental file/folder deletion or overwrite, system down at critical moments, system corruption by viruses, spyware or Trojans, accidental formatting of any of the hard disk partitions, corruption of registry files & folders, blue screen errors, system malfunction after patch updates, un-installation of software and applications, system malfunction after installation of new software/application and OS crash because of virus attack.

    The technology supports Microsoft Win XP and Vista operating systems. EC2 manages all the information on the local hard disk. No third-party media is required to run HCL EC2.

    HCL has announced ready availability of 'Non-Stop Series' of Laptops all across the country. The pricing starts from Rs.27,990/-. The EC2 technology is optional in all HCL desktops and laptops. However, the price of an EC2-enabled PC is marginally above than that of a non-EC2 PC.

    Please also note that execllent facility of Windows XP & Vista i.e. "Restore Point" is to be made non-functional to use EC2 feauters! Overriding the facility of OS. In fact, your soultion should have been in addition of the existing good features of OS and not as a better supplement.

    But it OVERWRITES, without clear and challanging warningS. It is sad part that in jiffy, the user may loose the data, not saved since ECC "backup" was taken!!

    I purchased a HCL PC with preloded EC2 s/w. due to mishappening the s/w was uninstalled from control panel. after restart the pc i found that pc went to the first snap of EC2, that was more then three months ago. my all drives of harddisk is blank now. how i can get my data. i think EC2 is not a data preventing s/w it is a data wiping s/w.

    The EC2 technology introduced by HCL is really a welcome move. My HCL system had crashed due to some system file missing, which would otherwise require reinstalling the entire operating system. EC2 was able to recover and restore the system within 30 seconds. Thank you EC2 and HCL.

    Can we do 100% recovery after partition delete or format of HDD. If yes how. Do we need any cd for recovery in this case.
