Before I Start, I'd Just Like To Say That Any Info Taken From This
Page Should At Least Credit Me For This Amazing Discovery.
-Thank'z - Michael CuE, CuBiCo 1999.

BRIEF HISTORY LESSON:-
When Sega Were Developing The Dreamcast, They Needed A New Kind
Of Storage Medium. They Chose Yamaha To Come Up With The Drive
And Disc. Yamaha Chose The CD Format For Many Reason'z:
1.)It Proved To Be Very Popular With Consumer'z ie:PLAYSTATION
2.)It Is Very Inexpensive To Make A CD And Package It
3.)It Give'z Developer'z Huge Amount'z Of Space To Play Around With
But There Is A Problem, CD'z Can Be Copied Very Easily.
That'z Why Yamaha Chose To Make It A 1GigaByte Disc,
So That People Like You And I Could Not Copy Them.
We All Know That A Standard CD-Recordable Can Hold
Between 650-680 MegaByte'z Of Recorded Data.
As Stupid As SEGA Are They Agreed To Use Yamaha'z
New CD Medium For This Reason.
Little Did SEGA Japan Know That Yamaha Had Teamed Up Some
Time Back With A Software Group Called CeQuadrat To
Release A Software Bundle With Every New Yamaha CD-Writer.
The Thing Is That CeQuadrat Had Also Found A Way Of Storing
1Gbyte+ On A Standard Disc Using Some Type Of New Writing
Method, Which Could Be Deployed By Most Yamaha Writer'z.
So If Dreamcast Uses A 1Gbyte Disc For It'z Drive, And Yamaha
Writer'z Can Now Write 1Gbyte+, Then Surely We Have Won.

Basic Info On CeQuadrat PacketCD 3.0

CeQuadrat Announces PacketCD 3.0

Aachen/Palo Alto, March 10, 1998

CeQuadrat's new Packet Writing solution doubles the capacitiy of CD-R/RW
CeQuadrat today announced a new version of its UDF packet writing software "PacketCD". The most important feature of this new version is transparent, real-time data compression and de-compression, yielding in more capacity and higher transfer speeds for packet writing.
Using a very fast compression algorythm, more data can be transfered to the CD-Recorder, virtually transforming a 2x CD recorder into a 4x drive. PacketCD 3.0 will also double the capacity of a CD-R or a CD-RW to more than 1 GB. CDs written with PacketCD 3.0 can be read back in any Windows 95 system*, using the CeQuadrat driver** which is provided on every CD written and finalised with PacketCD.

About PacketCD
PacketCD provides easy and safe drive letter access to CD-R or CD-RW media. Using incremental packet writing
PacketCD saves users from dreaded "Buffer underrun" errors, and works completely in the background: A CD-Recorder looks and works just like any other removable medium. On CD-RW media, files can be individually erased, and a sophisticated defect management prevents from loss of data when being written to damaged sectors.

PacketCD uses the industry wide accepted OSTA UDF (Universal Disc Format) file system standard, which is also used for DVD. The UDF file system is an integral part of new operating systems, such as Windows 98* and Mac OS 8.
