hell there, i have a large collection of music that i wan to backup to a dvd.
if i were to compress the music into a .rar archive and burn it and in case something bad happens to the dvd like scratches, will rar provide error correction? will i be able to recover my music?


and in nero while burning there's a drop down list showing a list of speeds(6,8,12,16x). how do i force a lower speed for ex: 2x or 4x?

thanks in advance!

AFAIK if a rar gets corrupted, due 2 scratches, den der is an option in WinRAR to extract those undamaged files (WinRAR not installed on d comp im usin right now, so cant tell u d exact path/procedure)
