THE MOVERS Treasure Chest II

hello dudes,

fresh from my red hot glowing 1541-ii disk drive - another transferpack (finished some minutes ago..). i got the disks from a friend with his c64.
246 transfered disk sides in the pack.
that was a bloody work - some (bad) hd disks and pc disks where in the box. some of them makes my drive crazy.

HOT!!

if you have self transfered disk - please post them! ;)

regards
swasti

We really need a central site for these packs with around 100 or more GB space and bandwidth.

No and No.

TDD has size constraints for what we need for "collections" (as far as I recall when speaking with Burglar). CSDb has seperate entries; although it would be nice to have a collections-section here? Maybe one of the admins can investigate this possibility and what is needed?

The space/site would need to be the type that lasts, not a site that disappears after a year or two (otherwise what's the point). Something stable and dedicated.

I'm surprised no one has created it yet, considering preservation is one of the most important parts of the C64 scene in the last few years (and 'collecting' has always been valued).

Distributed storage shouldn't be too hard, we would need a central website to link to the collections.

I'm not sure about having collections in CSDb.
Fear the endless discussions about that...

Like, what credits?
We would need to add 'transfered by' and stuff like that.
And the release date?
Still we would need storage space (although I think the distributed way it is done now, isn't too bad).

Nah... not on CSDb.

Putting collections on file sharing systems is a bad idea as these links expire faster than the c64 software it contains. Also distributed servers might over time degrade because of people stopping hosting etc. Distributed servers plus several mirrors is already better. Another option could be peer-to-peer (with a big number of people keep them seeded 'forever') but peer-to-peer seeds also degrade over time. (Drives filling up, etc.)

Also a standard way of an index file for the collections, maybe even some way to search for specific file names is something I would like.

Also the naming should be a bit more consistent. some collections have just the name disks1.zip making it almost impossible to see the origin. Some have the source's name added.

Sometimes the same collection turns up under another filename or other archive format (or splitted in several files) making it seem like a different collection.

Seems to me its quite an undertaking to preserve these collections but worth a try.
