I see a RAID 5 option in the disk manager in my Windows 10 pro 64bit os but it's greyed out , but I also see if could do a Parity RAID in storage space which it will allow me to do. So I'm curious why RAID 5 is greyed out and is there an advantage to getting RAID 5 to work vs Parity, which I...

Assume I enabled auto-update resp. search manually for updates of my 64bit Win 7 Pro system.
How can I exclude certain updates (e.g. KB3035583 as one example) forever from being installed?
Is there an exclusion list file which is accepted by built-in Windows Update Service?

My current preference is the Surface 2 (not the surface pro 2, for the avoidance of doubt). Battery life is key for me as I use it primarily in court, where I...

I tried to use a 32 GB flash and it refuses to do backup on it.
