NTFS standard two
When MFT record attribute too long, MFT record is fit so much property records, then you only the data in the form of a non-resident property stored in the volume of data to another location, or if so storing high, you must use the property sheet properties. Property holds no less than the MFT records will be transferred to a new assignment, and then add a property sheet in the original MFT attributes to describe how the search to all properties of the current file.
Immediately store each attribute description of standard properties after recording head records the position and location of the MFT record attributes, each attribute is described by four words aligned, recording the type of property, the name (well-known attributes), the serial number.
Properties property sheet does not include a description of their own.
Note: Use the property sheet property is typically due to the following circumstances:
1. There are too many aliases file.
2. Too many fragments that describe the data flow to fill the MFT record.
3. There are too complex security description (no longer happen in the NTFS 3.0 future versions).
4. There are too many command stream, such as data streams.
FILE_NAME (0x30 resident property len = 68 ~ 578))
This attribute is used to describe the file name, the property always reside in the MFT record.
In the definition of $ AttrDef, the minimum size of the property is 68 bytes and the maximum is 578 bytes, so the maximum file name length is 255 bytes.
