BrianPrime Wrote:i do have a CD-RW disk, used it a few times, wasn't my thing. main problem is that i can burn it and take files with me, but when i use someone elses PC, i can't save my changes back to the disk, since they don't have a CD writer, also, this was impossable for college files since none of the computers have a CD drive, with the exception of a few staff computers.(which, now that i'm staff, have access to a DVD-ROM drive.)Bobingabout Wrote:i never said I use floppy disks, i said i release R:ROTC in floopy drive chunks... havn't used floppies myself for a few years now.(except for things like boot disks, and things at work. some of the most advanced copy protection is on floppy disks, you can't fake a "Don't know" state using a standard floppy drive) although i must admint, i've never writen to CDs for file transfers :S. ZIP disks, flash drives and external hard drives yes, but, not CDs, little too permanant.
the 1.38Mb chunks also helps people download on bad connections.
Get a CDR/W, you can erase from them.
i have 4 DVD-RW disks, however, my DVD+/RAM/-RW drive refuses to erase them, meaning i can only use them in my DVD-HDD recorder. (its a TV hard drive recorder with a built in DVD-RW driver for playing and recording DVDs.)
i now carry a 60Gb Freecom mobile classic drive around with me everywhere. i also have a 80Gb and 120Gb freecom classic mobile V2 drives. in my work bag i have all 260Gb with me ;P
