Abstract
A system and method for gathering information about files stored is described. In one embodiment the method includes identifying a starting location of a file table of the data storage device. The file table includes an entry for the file table and entries for other files stored on the data storage device. The method also includes accessing a data attribute within the entry for the file table, which includes pointers to other locations where portions of the file table are stored on the data storage device. The pointers to the other locations are utilized to locate an entry in the file table for each of the other files, and attribute information for at least one attribute of each of the other files is retrieved from the entries for the other files.
