I keep hearing nothing but negatives about UDF.

fixed-length packets are the least reliable and most

Thus unreliable ???!!! Wow! What a Slimy Friggin SOB!

First, you have the 'forgetfulness' of
erasable media to begin with - even a fresh disc will develop
recoverable errors in a few months, unrecoverable as soon as a year.
Second, the directory information is held in RAM when the disc is in use
so is easily corrupted or lost, particularly in a Windows crash or power
failure. I recommend using fixed-length packets only for test.

How about for backup?

You may back up ...to a DCD-formatted erasable.

Combining the flaky UDF fixed-length packets with
the tendency of erasables ... to forget is
LETHAL for archiving.

For Take Two to work IDEALLY, your drive must support
packet writing and you must have DCD installed...to do it.

Imagine supposedly the flaky, least reliable and most fragile format
MUST be used for Take Two, supposedly a backup software, to work
IDEALLY, no less!
