English term or phrase: frontsave - backsave
Hi everyone. I am translating in the field of Computers/Technology, etc, and I have problems to find the correct equivalents for the terms: "frontsave" and "backsave" in this context:
Checking Resource Usage
This section describes how to check the hard disk space, memory usage, and CPU usage.
Alarms related to the hard disk space:
When the free space of the frontsave or backsave is less than 15% of the hard disk space, the system generates the Insufficient Disk Space (Major) alarm.

Is it talking about "partición primaria y secundaria del disco duro"?

Thanks in advance.

unidad de disco duro - dispositivo de almacenamiento


Explanation:
Hi there, this is talking about the fact that either the local hard-drive space OR the secondary-drive space used for backing up is going below 15%.
It is Not referring to partitions here, as you ask in your question. What they mean by "frontdrive" is essentially the "local hard-drive", and by "backdrive" the "secondary-drive" (external hard-drive, tape-device or other), but most definitely a device that is not physically part of the computer being backed up (or is external).

Hope this helps :)

What they essentially mean here is that when the space left to back up the Computer in general - either on the Local hard-drive OR the Secondary device that backs that hard-drive up, has run below 15%, the computer will give an error message saying so.

Yes, and that is precisely what they are: the "frontdrive" is the front save location (or local hard drive) and the "backdrive" is the location where the backup takes place (or Secondary device that backs that hard-drive up). Thanks for pointing that out! I was aware of the fact, and wanted to point it out.

I am merely expressing my opinion here. I have a degree in Computer Sciences and about 15 years experience in the business, so if you feel I am wrong - go for you life! I have NO problem whatsoever.

Asker: Hi James. Thanks for answering, but are you using "frontdrive" and "backdrive" as sinonyms for "frontsave" and "backsave"?
