EWF partition,Ewf volume and ewf configuration partition

can you tell me the difference among ewf partition, ewf colume and ewf configration partition
With ram overlay ,which partiton of htese three is needed
With disk overlay, which partition of these three is needed?

I do not understand what you are trying to ask.

But you should really try taking one or two days to read documentation from
TD, and also use google groups to find answers to easy questions.
There is more than enough info about EWF.

Regards,
Slobodan

ninihappy,

You seem to confuse some terms. Most likely, by the "EWF partition" you mean
Protected partition - the partition that is protected by EWF (storage volume
that is being masked by the EWF driver).
EWF volume is the EWF configuration volume - a storage partition of type
0x45 that is used by EWF and is not visible or recognized by the operating
system. It is comprised of the master EWF volume table, a number of overlay
stacks, and overlay data for all disk overlays.

Protected partion - this is what you are trying to protect.
You will also need some free (unpartitioned) space for EWF volume unless you
use Slobodan's approach with RAM based overlay (www.xpefiles.com).

You should read on how EWF works and get familiar with its architecture:
