Find: Add Names To DVD Drives

image I’m not going to re-create the wheel, but this is a cool deal. If you’ve virtual drives or more than 1 drive you can benefit from this.

It allows you to go in and change the designation/name of the CD/DVD drive so that you know what it is… better.

Working with CD/DVD ISO’s

Create ISO (or ISO Creators)
Creating an ISO is the same as creating an electronic copy of a CD without copying a CD. This doesn’t mean you can copy a copy-protected disc, but you can make back ups of CD like, personally created discs, music and driver CDs. These copies can be made and stored until you need them. They can be a real life saver is some situations.

LCISOCreator.exe – Creates ISO’s; very small and fast.

Mounting ISO’s
ISOs are extremely helpful to have if you catch your self in a tight spot needing that old CD or installation disc you may have misplaced or is now so scratched you can’t read it anymore. Being able to burn a copy of the disc again is great, but what if you don’t have to… what if you could access the ISO as if it was a drive letter like any other; you can.

MagicISO – Mounts ISO as drive letter, use the ISO without burning it to a disc.

Virtual Clone Drive – Probably the best virtual drive software, Virtual CloneDrive allows you to enjoy the freedom of a virtual drive and is completely free.

Burn an ISO
ISOs are direct images of the discs, you can just burn them off to CD/DVD.

IMGBurn – It’s free; it’s fast and it does the job. It has the ability to burn other types of data as well.

Note worthy: ISORECORDER

Hope this helps.

Enjoy.
