if you take a dvd (dvd5 or dvd9 either way) on a linux machine with ~16GB of memory, and you read the entire disk once - say dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/null - the entire thing will be in memory. You can then use whatever tools you want as if you had the disk in memory, and it will never touch the physical device again. If i hadn't seen it myself i would have wondered why it wasn't already possible already. |
