Tech/Engineering - Computers: Systems, Networks
English term or phrase: T drive
Tel que décrit par wiseGEEK :

A *T drive* is a backup storage area usually found on a computer network or individual computer hard drive. It's typically added or partitioned and used as a back up to the main C drive. *T drives* are especially useful should a computer freeze, blue screen, or be rebooted before any file changes are saved.

Question un peu urgente, merci pour vos suggestions ;)

Explanation:
C'est ce que me suggère la description, et ça collerait avec "T"

Bien sûr ça ne concerne que l'univers Apple, mais ça peut se mettre sur un réseau ou sur l'ordinateur et ça récupère les fichiers non enregistrés s'ils sont été clonés à temps

Example sentence(s):

Apr 9, 2013 - Hard drives and storage devices can fail, and files can become corrupted. ... All departmental users can copy files to this area, and everyone in the office can ... The T:\ drive has an electronic dropbox for each person in your department. ... Note: Your dropbox is designed to be used as a temporary location."
