Microsoft DVD contains 50Gb data :o

[shantanu]

hi everyone !

i today tried to install Exchange Server 2007 from my Original Microsoft multi DVD, so i thought to take a look at the size of the content as i knew that setup might be 5 gb or so, but seeing the multilanguage setups folders i thought of seeing the content size guess what 49.1 GB in a normal DVD :O , wtf man , i have seen original DVDs with 10gb content at most that too in a DVD9 , but 49.1 GB daymn

here is the pic :

Microsoft OS + Microsoft DVD. One shouldn't be surprised as MS can do anything to make their products look better than others while they aren't.

That is called Optimization. You can do this in Magic ISO. There are a certain set of files common between the versions. They are physically present only once, but they are referenced many times. When you make a copy of it, the files are copied physically multiple times.

See all those All-In-One disks on warez sites? Multiple versions of Windows, VS etc. etc. They are made the same way.

+1

Seen how Visual Studio 2008 Express Full ISO is just around 900MB but if you download indivudual component ISO, each might be 500mb or so ? Its the same reason here too.

I had Windows 2000 All version MSDN CD & it had 2-3 GBs of data if I remember correctly.

I've got a 7-in-1 Windows XP CD that claims to contain all versions of XP (Home, Pro & what-not). They even gave a tutorial inside that CD, explaining in detail how it was done. The same point that infra_red_dude mentioned, has been stated there too!
