    Hi,
    I have a folder containing about 15GB of data which I like to backup. I know that I can use e.g. Toast Titanium to burn to multiple discs. TT will automatically ask for the next disc until all data has been burned.

    My question is: Is there a way I can perform the same backup but instead of burning the data to multiple discs I like to "burn" to multiple disc images?

    I know I can use diskUtility to "burn" all data to one disc image, however, I like to "burn" the data to multiple disc images each 4GB in size.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Bloch

    Not sure what options Toast Titanium has nowadays, so I couldn't tell if it has some sort of disc emulation setting when burning. You can however try this software:

    Not sure how functional it is but that's all that I could muster up in my Google search. :)

    Just out of curiosity, why do you want to create multiple disk images for backup purposes? Does cloning/copying to other HDDs not work for your routine?
