About this tag
The Joliet file system is an extension of ISO 9660 designed for CD and DVD media, primarily used in older burning software and operating systems. Discussions on WindowsForum.com compare Joliet with UDF for data backups, noting that UDF is generally recommended for modern Windows systems like Windows 7 due to better support for large files and advanced features. Users report that Joliet can cause issues, such as slow burning performance on CD-RW discs in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, and may lead to driver errors during Windows installation. For reliable backups, many forum members advise using UDF instead of Joliet, especially for archiving large files on DVD or Blu-ray media.
