Summary:
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools (DataBoxDiskSplitCopy.exe, DataBoxDiskValidation.cmd), providing troubleshooting steps only for Windows clients (enabling long paths), and omitting any mention of Linux equivalents or guidance for Linux users. There are no Linux or cross-platform examples or instructions, and the only client configuration advice is for Windows.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent instructions for Linux clients, such as how to handle long file paths and any relevant filesystem limitations.
- Mention or provide Linux-compatible tools or scripts for validating and splitting data, or clarify if the provided tools are Windows-only.
- Add examples or troubleshooting steps for common Linux scenarios, such as mounting disks, copying data, and handling file naming or path length issues.
- Use neutral, cross-platform language where possible, and avoid assuming the user is on Windows.
- If certain features or tools are only available on Windows, explicitly state this and suggest alternatives or workarounds for Linux users.
