How Burn Multiple CD's (NERO 6)

[Viensterrr]

There is a folder in my coputer that is over 3gb of files and I want to burn them on a re-writable discs using Nero 6. Can anyone tell me whether there is a way to have Nero automatically split the files so it asks for a new CD when one is filled? If not, do I have to split the files myself? If so, then what is the best way to do this? Thanks.

It doesnt have to do anything with the operating system, but you have 2 options, you can try to use an archiving program like Winzip to break the file up into manageable pieces and then burn them, or you can use the Nero Back-it-up function to do the job. I am not sure if the latter option is available in Oem versions of Nero.

You can just try to break the data into sub-folders of approx 500mbs each, and then burn each one to a seperate disc. It will be very simple to do unless you have any files larger than the capacity of the CD itself which is 700mb approx. Incase you have files over 70mb, you will need to get a file splitter utility. Better still, you can get a DVD burner and you can backup about 4.7gbs at a time.

Thanks for the information, but what is a good burning program should do that for me?

Yes, you should simply burn them to a DVD and it should fit on a DVD nicely.
