>>what is that 600MB file?<<

The 600 MB file is a complete copy of my harddrive. Power Quest Drive Image creates a single file when it backs up a harddrive.

There is a compression option but I have opted for no compression. The no compression option allows for single file restoration.

I chose a 600 MB OS + basic program installation as the first step in my harddrive restoration. The reason I stopped at 600 MB is that it will fit on a CDR.

I do not have access to IDE CDR. I can try a burn on another SCSI CDR however.

I am not a regular sound recorder either. The files that I extracted from a CD were averaging about 50 MB. If an audio CD is 74 minutes and it can hold 650 MB that would work out to about 8.8 MB per minute. Just guessing
