This article was probally the most interesting forensics article. I found it so interesting because it has to deal with Xbox something I find very interesting. A forensics toolkit for the Xbox is described by US researchers in the International Journal of Electronic Security and Digital Forensics. The toolkit could allows law enforcement to search the inbuilt hard disk of such devices and find illegal hidden materials easily. Basically in a shorter explanation the toolkit works like this, the analyst can use shell commands (no idea what those are) to browse the directory tree, open files, view files in hex editor mode, list the contents of the current
directory in short or long mode and expand the current directory to list all associated files. Scientist have developed this tool for the xbox because it is a device that criminal often think will be over looked as a potential place to store data.

After reading this article, I thought it was very interesting because even a commonly used devise like an Xbox, where thousands if not millions of people use as an entertainment system, can be used by a criminal to store important data and/or files that could link them to a crime. I thought that Jesse did a good job writing this critique because he listed why criminals would use an Xbox to store data involving a crime, how scientists have discovered the use of Xbox for these type of people, and how it can be used by criminals and how scientists can view this data. Overall I thought that this was a good critique mostly because of how Jesse explained what happens in his own words.
Jesse’s article was very interesting. I particularly enjoyed the reference to Xbox because the majority of our class is very familiar with this device. I also found the hard drive material sensor very interesting because many people may try and smuggle illegal intel this way. Another aspect that I found interesting was the capabilities of the operators of this machine; they can quickly scan all of the material on the hard drive. However I found this article very brief, it was very informal but short. It would have also been nice to hear about an example of this system being used successfully. Overall I was unaware that such a machine with many capabilities existed which was very interesting to me.
This article speaks to the teenage boy. With the slightest reference to X-Box, they instantly had my attention. I am yet to know if that is a good thing or bad, but it did draw me to this review. I thought it was very interesting about how the hard drive sensor could be used to illegally smuggle Intel inside. I thought the capabilities of the operators who run this machine was fascinating, in that they can scan all the material on the hard drive swiftly.
I was disheartened to find this article very short and seemingly cut off. The information was there, but there wasn't a body to the work. I would have also liked to hear about a success story of this machinery.
Taking all into account I learned that a machine could be used for so much more, than what is generally known.
I thought this article was very interesting because it has to do with the xbox which everyone is quite familiar with. I thought it was interesting how analysts can get information from an xbox to pin a crime to a suspect. Also, I found it very interesting that criminals use their xbox to store files rather than using their computer or an external hard drive. This is pretty smart because it is harder to get caught. I think you could have gone into more detail about how they can use the information they get from the xbox and I learned that criminals use the xbox in this manner.

I found this article vry interesting because xbox is a very familiar thing to students and we can all relate t the article. It was also very interesting o learn that a criminal can use the gaming console to store daa o files relevent to crimes. This article was vry informational abouthow criminals couldtry to smuggle illega intel though te hard rie materia sensor. I thought th critique was wel writen because Jesse not only explaned wh criminals would use xbox's for toring data, and how scentists can view the data. The article was very infrmational, but it seemed very short. I thoug thisarticle was very entertaining as i ganed a whole knew knowledge and perspectve on the uses o the gaming console.
Jesse De La Rama's article was enticingly interesting, it is about something that I enjoy doing. About everyone in our class is familiar with this device and is a lot of fun to use. What is interesting as well is that these devices usually break very easily. Something that i found interesting was the capabilities of the operators of this machine. What i really liked about this article is that it was short and straight to the point, Jesse did a good job with this article.
Jesse’s article and summary was very interesting.I thought it was very interesting because even a commonly used devise like an Xbox, which thousands of people use as an entertainment system, can be used by a criminal to store important files that could link someone to a crime. Another aspect of jesses article that I found intriguing was the capabilities of the operators of this machine; they can quickly scan all of the material on the hard drive.
One thing I didnt like about this article was how short and brief it was, i thought the summary could have been a little longer. Also It would have also been nice to hear about an example of this system being used successfully to solve a crime.
Overall I thought that this was an interesting subject, as it appeals to a wide range of people, and I had never thought forensics could apply to such a subject.
