What OS is better for an software engineer?

I would have to say either a Windows OS or a Linux OS because from the extent of my knowledge, a software engineer creates software based programs in a variety of languages and they need to be supported which can be easily done in either of the 2 OS's

My best bet would be Linux because Linux is a lot more stable (less crashes then Windows), and the user interface on a Linux is similar to a Windows OS, so you will still know what you are doing and how to navigate around.

The operating system you use should be the same one you are programming for. And since you can find work programming for any of the major platforms, you should be safe by sticking to the one you are most used to using.

How many 5 gig files can you put on a 1 terabyte?

A Terabyte is about 1,000 Gigabytes, so you can fit 1,000/5 = 200 such files.

Note that some people measure a Tera as 1,024 Gig, and some measure it as 1,000. Also, some measure a Giga- as 1,024 Mega, and some measure it as 1,000. So this number could be not quite exact.

Also, the file system you use has overhead: that means, some of the space on the hard disk is used to hold information to let you find the stuff in the file. That means this space is not available to hold the files themselves. There are two types of file systems used most often in Windows: FAT and NTFS. Each one has several "flavors" (differnt "block sizes"). In general, most file systems will use something between 10% - 15% for overhead (now you know why I can't say exactly).

Combining these, if 85% of the space is useful for holding your files (100% - 15% = 85%), that means a 1 Tb disk could hold 200 x 85% = 170 files (+/- 5 if there's disagreement on the 1,000 vs. 1,024 issue).

Real Wizards are extraordinary people. They are solitary people and they are very wise. The reason they are called Wizards is because they are able to control their environment.
