Have you ever used a DVD+RW? You need no stinking erase phase. Just record over it and you're done. Using DVD-RWs is similar to using CD-RWs in that you have to erase them. Quite annoying indeed. But with DVD+RWs being cheaper than DVD-RWs here where I live, I think that they're *the* solution to transfer data among some computers (and if you go to a friend's place, carrying a removeable HD may not be an option). Anyway, what happens if you have to backup data that is more than the capacity of the HDs you have? The problem is similar to the fact that a given DVD can only hold so much data. I am really interested in a way to backup data that allows me to use multiple media, if I need to. Thanks for any help, Rogério. -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
