How much free space? 250gb drives

[Rod Speed]

Some burners have very high data rates. And not all hard disks are new.

Still no overlap.

That's unknowable.
Nope.

It depends on the state of the disk when the MP3 is written.

The word LIKELY was used for a reason.

 

[Rod Speed]

Still no overlap.

And the question was asked about a 250G drive, plenty fast enough.

 

[Euan Kerr]

And MP3s arent likely to be that fragmented anyway.

Bullshit.

 

[IDIDIT]

Bullshit.

Now that's an answer that should be in a FAQ regarding: Attaining
maturity and intelligence.

 

[Euan Kerr]

You must be new here.

 

[Rod Speed]

Bullshit.

Not with a drive that big, with the sort of free space being discussed.

And they burn fine even when fragmented a bit anyway.

No point obsessively defragging in that particular situation.

Actually, "clueless" would have been the proper response, that being the
Rodbot's usual response to just about anything.

That's a good point. A 250GB drive _will_ be of recent vintage.

 

[Euan Kerr]

Nothing to do with MP3s then.

More irrlevant crap from the resident clueless arrogant idiot
flushed where it belongs.

Even you should be able to bullshit your way out of your
predicament better than that pathetic effort, gutless.

Pathetic really.

Cant manage to get even the simplest stuff right.

Thats what ****nert says, stupid.

Fraid so, thats what she said she wants to store them on, fool.

Reams of your puerile attempts to bullshit your way
out of your predicament flushed where it belongs.

Cant even manage it own lines. How pathetic is that ?

 

[Arlene]

Dont need to defrag in that situation.
Fantastic.


Nope, its irrelevant.

Getting even better.

Give up the defragging, it will work fine.

Perfect! Thanks Rod that is one less pain to bother with. )

Thanks for replying.

 

[Arlene]

Depends. If the fragmentation is enough to slow the read speed below
the speed at which you write the CD/DVD the burner needs to be able to
deal with an interrupted data stream. If it has "BurnProof" or the
like, then it is not a problem. If it does not, then you will loose
media.

Both my Plextor (CD) and Sony (DVD) use "Burn Proof." So looks like I
will be home free.

Thanks Arno for the follow-up, much appreciated.

Well, <plonk> is what _I_ says to those whose conversation is at the level
you're exhibiting.

 

[Lil' Dave]

I have 1GB dual channel of memory. Do I need more? ;-)

Probably not.

And, the swapfile size capacity can be an

I have six 250gb hard drives.

My guess is that you must be using some video creation tool, these have
their own swapfile, in addition to windows swapfile. The plot thickens.

The number and capacity of the HDs mean nothing, you asked about freespace
and percentage of the hard drive that should be freespace..

 

[Folkert Rienstra]

Getting even better.

Enjoy your snake-oil.

Indeed.

You are welcome.
