I think..(and I say that lightly) that what the op wants to know is if there is anyway of pinpointing exactly where on a cd/dvd that certain thigs are...i.e...where on the disc is set-up.exe.or where is that certain mp3....i think ...lol

I think the answer is a great big NO.

some one get me a cd/dvd and when i insert it to drive the copy or install progress is very slow . i hear a noise from lense of drive.it move very fast from center to corner of disk.
i think the files will be fragmented.
it's the reason of my topic in up
-
Disk could be damaged or lens of drive could be dirty or laser could be failing or laser head misaligned. CD file systems do not suffer fragmentation.
-
it move very fast from center to corner of disk
How, on earth, can you know such details??

Also, if the disk has corners, maybe it is the wrong type? :)
I think he means "edge".
k_mohsen, squares and rectangles have 4 corners, a circle or oval has one edge.

ok :)
thanks for ya guidance.
but my drive is ok and other media read very good.
let's me say an example:
you have this disk (cd or dvd).
here is the tree of files and folders.
/doc/manual/xxx_en.pdf
xxx_fr.pdf
xxx_gr.pdf
xxx_it.pdf
...../tip/xxx_en.pdf
xxx_fr.pdf
xxx_gr.pdf
xxx_it.pdf
/install/setup.msi
multi_lang.exe
/support/read_me.html
ok.......
now , when you start copy , copy dialog show the progress of coping.
you see the content of "/doc/manual" are copy first and then "/install" and "/support" are coping.
but at the end you see the copy of "/doc/tip".
why it's happen? the "/tip" folder is subfolder of "/doc" .
they must be copied together.( /manual and /tip )
i think some one can write files and folders as fragmented.

Just because two things belong together logically, they don't have to be physically together on the disk. A CD is not like a phonograph record where song 2 must be after song 1.

What does this mean?

What you are seeing is the normal writing of files...PDF's for example will take longer to burn than let's say a textfile.
In regards to location the directory structure as seen does not always follow how the files are laid out and burned on the CD itself.
Hopefully i've complicated matters with my response.
