Placing Excess Data on a CD
Computers were collinear in nature. An older computer could store massive data bytes. The computer read the data width; but, not the depth. Here is a technique of adding data to a disc.
A CD ROM may carry "700MB" of data. If the file is read left to right, the computer perceives the data to be of a width based nature. If files contain subfiles many levels deep, the computer still reads the data as accordingly to width.
I have files that contain many subfolders that reach to 10 levels of subfolders deep. I have recorded these files onto CD ROM. These files range from 7.06 GB to 24 GB in range. With my sub subfolders, I was capable of tricking the computer into thinking the files were collinear. Instead, I recorded up to 24 GB per 700MB capacity disc.
