    Windows Imaging Format

    The Windows Imaging Format (WIM) is a file-based disk image format. It was developed by Microsoft to help deploy Windows Vista and subsequent versions of Windows operating system family, as well as Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs.

    Design

    Like other disk image formats, a WIM file contains a set of files and associated filesystem metadata. However, unlike sector-based formats (such as ISO or VHD), WIM is file-based: The fundamental unit of information in a WIM is a file.

    The primary advantages of being file-based is hardware independence and single-instance storage of a file referenced multiple times in the filesystem tree. Since the files are stored inside a single WIM file, the overhead of opening and closing many individual files is reduced. The cost of reading or writing many thousands of individual files on the local disk is negated by hardware and software-based disk caching as well as sequential reading and writing of the data.

    WIM files can contain multiple disk images, which are referenced either by their numerical index or by their unique name. Due to the use of single-instance storage, the more each successive disk image has in common with previous images added to the WIM file, the less new data will be added. A WIM can also be split (spanned) into multiple parts, which have the .swm extension.

    Days Of North Winds

    by: IAM

    On days of north wind infinity appears
    Against the unknown allegiance of fear
    Of pagan wisdoms and pagan sights
    We created kingdoms blended by might
    All fearless servants
    Blind fortunes for the throne
    For the ode of glory dominated here
    On glorious horses through wide landscapes
    Might poisoned the minds of men
    From the age of passion
    Soldiers of the hand
    Under the wrath of the sun
    They ruled the lingdoms
    And built a new dawn
    Dark kings hailed beyond all fate
    Above the gates of infinity
    Imperiums call the profane
    On days of north wind illusions appear
    Against the unknown allegiance of fear
    Pagan wisdom - pagan sights
    Create the vision blended by might
    Dark empries beyond all fate
    Above the gates of infinty
    Imperiums call the profane
