Another advantage of many files
Authored by: lowbatteries on Aug 07, '08 05:32:18PM

Another advantage of a sparsebundle being many files, is it can be copied onto multiple hard drives in a pinch, or even file systems that don't support large files (like Windows FAT32 with its 4GB limit).

I also assume it improves the performance of image files on RAID and ZFS.
