Question about 'How do I store files on CDs that are too large to fit ON ONE CD?'

I have a question about How do I store files on floppies that are too large to fit?:

I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO STORE THE CONTENTS OF A DRIVE ON MULTIPLE CDs when there is too much to fit on one CD without breaking it down into CD size groups for burning.

One way would be to use Drive Image. It allows you to "image" an entire drive and you can set compression levels as well as set a maximum file size (you can make files small enough to fit on a CD). I'm sure there are other ways, and I'm certain you'll get better responses than mine.

Yes indeed, there are better responses. Go to www.zdnet.com/downloads There are shareware tools that you can find there, that are designed to break very large files into smaller pieces.

In addition, Drive Image  V7 (new) will create images across CDs. I haven't tested 
it yet on a large partition, but it works on small ones.
