Expertise

Odysseas Kourafalos has close to four decades of experience in technology and has used uncountable pieces of software, from Commodore 128’s GEOS to the latest version of Krita on Windows 11. Inadvertently, he also had to occasionally recover many types of data from various storage devices on multiple platforms. This experience also gave him a deeper understanding of how technology “ticks”, including storage solutions, file systems, and data recovery apps. Thanks to that, he can untangle complicated topics, like RAID data recovery, and turn them into easy-to-understand articles, tutorials, and guides anyone can understand. Odysseas is also an expert in areas such as Android-powered devices and everything related to Linux.
