David Kovar,

I have used FTK dozens of times with images as large as 80 GB of ram. I haven't had any strange storage issues though. I have also used mdd.exe and .vsem files in analysis and had similar results with less issues with larger images.

What version of FTK imager did you use?

Regards ,
Wyatt Roersma

Good afternoon,

I was just looking at a memory dump that, when compressed, went from 4GB to about 20MB. Something is odd here, I say. Most of the file is nulls.

The dump was collected with FTK Imager. Does anyone have any opinions on its reliability as a memory acquisition tool?

Thanks.

-David
