I just guess this may be used on SMALL / MINI DVD+RW disks used in camcorders, or small "business card" disk, they have around 1.25..1.5GB capacity, I used them quite often because they are pretty reliable (can live several years when carried everyday in a backpack), smaller in size, rewritable (can use up-to-date contents when it shows up on the same disk), and twice capacity of CeDeROM disks.. thus the name "disc1" not "cdrom1" I guess..? FreeBSD-12.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso 910008320 I can recommend those that still live for years: Verbatim 8CM 4x DVD+RW HardCoat 1.4GB 30MIN capacity TDK DVD-RW ScratchProof 30MIN capacity 2x record speed also I had Sony disk like this but I cannot find it at the moment :-) Get a 5 pack of these for 10EUR and you will be happy with the purchase :-) ps/2: I have just found out that there are BluRay DoubleSided disks with 50GB capacity and my burner actually supports them =) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
