Archive2iso software shuffles files in a directory tree and distributes them across multiple ISO files.
Archive2iso is an application that allows users to randomize a directory tree's files to stripe them across several ISO files, which can then be archived or burned to a CD. The main purpose of this software is to distribute files across multiple CDs or DVDs to prevent data loss in case of damaged disks. Instead of losing all images in a directory, archive2iso spreads them across several disks, so if one disk is lost, only a portion of the data will be lost.
It is worth noting that archive2iso does not split the files themselves, meaning all files remain in their original state. The software is particularly useful in situations where users have a large number of valuable files that could span multiple disks. For instance, if you have a collection of vacation photos that span over six CDs, archive2iso will distribute them across the six disks, and if one of the disks is damaged or lost, you only lose a portion of the collection.
Using archive2iso is simple. Users enter the directory they want to archive, the number of files they intend to archive, and the estimated size of the data. Next, they enter the maximum megabyte size for the ISO/CD/DVD, and the software will estimate the number of disks required. Archive2iso then generates several ISO files containing the randomised files from the directory.
The final step involves verifying whether the disk configuration is balanced or not. If it is, the software will proceed to build the ISO images. If not, the user can choose to re-randomize the disks to achieve a balanced configuration.
Overall, archive2iso is a useful software that provides a straightforward solution to distribute files across multiple CDs or DVDs, preventing data loss in case of damaged disks. The software is easy to use and requires minimal input from users, making it an ideal solution for anyone looking to store their files efficiently.
