I backed up a system and created and the total size was a whopping 7GB!
Unfortunately, the PC does not have a dual layer DVD burner, just regular single layer.
I had to split the file with WinRAR and transfer to my USB drive, then extract and burn with my other desktop. Just that with a learning curve with WinRAR took several hours!
Come to find out, the DVD drive can not read DVDs that are dual layer.
Is there a way to create a multi-CD or multi-DVD backup solution for those without Blu-ray, dual layer DVD or single layer DVD?
There are still many people out there with plain old CD burners and single layer DVD burners.
Maybe in the far future it'll all be Blu-ray but for now, it would be great to have this for right now.
(I did check for a firmware upgrade on the DVD drive with no luck)

InfoWarriorMaverick84,
Sorry, due to the script limitation, this function is not easily to be implemented...
Maybe we will have this feature in the future.
For the time being, as Nicholas mentioned, try to use USB flash drive or hard drive if it's possible.

Not sure what your hardware situation is, but why not use a USB drive or Network? both options would allow you to access a large amount of space.
