Mount Rainier (packet Writing) - Advantages

Advantages

Advantages of MRW over UDF 1.5+ include:

  • fast background formatting of the media
  • finer grained packet size of 2K versus 64K
  • file system independence
  • does not depend on the host system to perform defect management

Advantage of UDF 1.5+ over MRW include:

  • more portable, as UDF 1.5+ alone does not need specialized drive hardware to write, and the computer needs neither an MRW driver for a MRW-capable optical drive nor an MRW reader for drives that are incapable of reading MRW natively, reducing software overhead.

Famous quotes containing the word advantages:

    In 1845 he built himself a small framed house on the shores of Walden Pond, and lived there two years alone, a life of labor and study. This action was quite native and fit for him. No one who knew him would tax him with affectation. He was more unlike his neighbors in his thought than in his action. As soon as he had exhausted himself that advantages of his solitude, he abandoned it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    If we live in the Nineteenth Century, why should we not enjoy the advantages which the Nineteenth Century offers? Why should our life be in any respect provincial?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    No advantages in this world are pure and unmixed.
    David Hume (1711–1776)
