bochen280 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) I was burning a whole bunch of discs for backup and archival of data (data files, not for music or video) and some files were larger than 4GB+ size so ImgBurn suggested to use UDF format as opposed to ISO 9660. It switched me from ISO 9660 + UDF to strictly UDF and defaulted to the 1.02 UDF Revision. After burning and verifying a whole bunch of discs I came across conflicting posts that state for blu-ray it is best to use UDF 2.50 ..... Will this cause a problem when I want to access/retrieve the information that I burned? I can see it just fine in Windows 7 using the default external Sony Blu-ray burner/reader, but will this become a problem on any other blu-ray devices?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 For plain old data, it makes no difference. Your computer can use read all the file systems (and versions thereof) that ImgBurn supports. So you can use any file system/version on any media you like - the OS doesn't care. Drives don't read file systems so you don't have to worry about that either - they just read whatever is recorded to the sectors on the disc. If you were burning a Blu-ray Video disc, you'd use 2.50 (because that's just the 'norm' for BD Video discs)... but then the program would detect that's what you were doing and prompt you to change it anyway.
