Cleaning up a ToS disk to sell, and these things are so damn tiny.

I don't know why I've never thought about it. I usually just pop the disk in as fast as I can!

I liked them and how they all clicked with the Gamecube! Consoles that don't take up much space ftw

They're not just tiny, but don't they also spin in the opposite direction and write data from the outside in?

I doubt that. They're just mini DVDs. Maybe they spin in the opposite direction, but writing from the outside in is just bad design.

Maybe I'm confusing them with Dreamcast GD-ROMs. I know at least one of them wrote from the outside in, if not both.

Anyway, what makes it bad design?

Outside is more likely to get damaged. Which is why the Saturn was a pain. Sega put the Saturn's copy-protection scheme on the outside.

One plus was they were harder to break. Step on a Playstation Disc and watch it crack. Step on a Gamecube Disc and it barely notices. Infact, it probably taunts you to try harder.

Oh wait I'm dumb, I got it backwards. The outside rings get the best transfer rates because for each rotation, much more of the disc can be read than the inside parts. So all discs should do that...
